2022 film by Colin Trevorrow

Jurassic World Dominion is a 2022 American science fiction action film directed by Colin Trevorrow, who co-wrote the screenplay with Emily Carmichael. The sequel to Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom (2018), it is the third installment in the Jurassic World film series and sixth installment overall in the Jurassic Park franchise. Chris Pratt, Bryce Dallas Howard, BD Wong, and Omar Sy reprise their roles from the previous films, along with Laura Dern, Jeff Goldblum, and Sam Neill, who appear together for the first time since the original Jurassic Park. Also joining the cast were DeWanda Wise and Mamoudou Athie.

The film is set four years after the events of Fallen Kingdom, with dinosaurs and other de-extinct prehistoric animals now living alongside humans around the world. It follows Owen Grady and Claire Dearing as they embark on a rescue mission, while Alan Grant, Ellie Sattler and Ian Malcolm work to expose a conspiracy by the genomics corporation Biosyn. Planning for the film began in 2014, before the release of the first Jurassic World film. Filming took place from February to November 2020 in Canada, England, and Malta. With an estimated budget of up to $465 million, it is one of the most expensive films ever made. Because of the COVID-19 pandemic, filming was suspended for several months and the release was delayed by a year.

Jurassic World Dominion premiered in Mexico City on May 23, 2022, and was released in the United States by Universal Pictures on June 10. It received generally negative reviews from critics, although an extended edition, included with the home media release, was met more positively. Like its predecessors, the film was a financial success and grossed $1 billion worldwide, becoming the third-highest-grossing film of 2022. A standalone sequel, Jurassic World Rebirth, was released on July 2, 2025.
