Scarlett Johansson has confirmed her starring role in the next chapter of Jurassic World. The actress also revealed that she has been a fan of the saga since she was a child.
Now there are no more doubts: Scarlett Johansson will really be the protagonist of the new Jurassic World trilogy. This was confirmed by the actress herself during one of the many interviews given in recent days to promote the release in theaters and on Apple TV+ of the dramatic comedy Fly Me to the Moon, which sees her alongside Channing Tatum. Although last March there was talk of very advanced negotiations between the actress and the production, the official presence of her in the cast of the film has only arrived now.

Scarlett Johansson confirms her presence in the new Jurassic World film
Being in the cast of Jurassic World is a real dream for Scarlett Johansson. “I'm a huge Jurassic Park fan. It's one of the first films I remember seeing at the cinema, it was an experience that changed my life. It was crazy!. I can't express how excited I am! The script is incredible, David Koepp wrote it, he came back after thirty years and he's so passionate, it's fantastic and I'm a huge fan and a huge nerd of the franchise,” said the actress.
Despite the leading role she had in the Marvel Cinematic Universe in the role of Natasha Romanoff / Black Widow, in the last ten years Scarlett Johansson has tried several times to enter the magical world of dinosaurs: “I tried in every possible way to enter part of this franchise for the last ten years. I can die in the first five minutes, I can be eaten by anything you want, I can do the catering, I'll do anything! The fact that it has finally happened is just incredible! I still can't believe it!“, confessed the actress. The new Jurassic World film will arrive in theaters on July 2, 2025. Filming has already started a few days ago.
