I’m nonetheless greatly surprised by the truth that the 2025 film schedule will truly be bringing the seventh Jurassic film to theaters. With Jurassic World Rebirth’s July launch date locked, loads of different questions have began to fill followers’ minds; queries like, “Who’s going to attain this subsequent chapter in dinosaur mayhem?”
Nicely, we lastly have the reply to that very query, and it could shock a few of you. However imagine it or not, Gareth Edwards’ pre-existing ties to the Star Wars franchise might have made this musical determination attainable.
Alexandre Desplat Is Jurassic World Rebirth’s Composer
Following within the footsteps of OG composer John Williams, Jurassic Park III’s Don Davis and former Jurassic World composer Michael Giacchino, Alexandre Desplat has been revealed to be the subsequent maestro in line. What’s extra, that announcement got here by a video that celebrates his hiring by debuting snippets of his music for Rebirth, as you’ll see and listen to beneath:

As somebody who appreciates film scores, the Oscar-winning composer that scored Paddington 2, in addition to a handful of films for each Guillermo del Toro and Wes Anderson, Mr. Desplat’s hiring is already an indication of sound judgement. Even listening to him talk about his ideas on John Williams’ Jurassic Park rating, and the way it matches into Jurassic World Rebirth, proves that this was a improbable determination. However within the realm of that galaxy far, far-off, Alexandre Desplat’s reteaming together with his Godzilla director is one thing that was imagined to occur not too way back.
Rogue One’s Ties Deeper Into The Jurassic Franchise Have Simply Grown Deeper
Again in 2015, once we knew that John Williams wouldn’t be scoring the primary of solely two Star Wars Tales we’d get in theaters, Desplat was employed to attain Rogue One. Alas, the historical past of that movie’s full highway to launch is one which’s difficult, and stuffed with twists, similar to Tony Gilroy’s intensive reshoots that noticed him revising the image for its 2016 launch.
These reshoots didn’t solely result in Rogue One’s lacking trailer scenes being misplaced to oblivion, however they noticed Alexandre Desplat having to depart the mission. Introduced in to take over the musical duties was composer Michael Giacchino, whose hiring helped full the Star Wars prequel occurred after he’d accepted a brand new long run gig: the unique trilogy of Jurassic World films.
Very like Maestro Giacchino, Mr. Desplat’s work sounds prefer it pays correct homage to John Williams’ rating from Jurassic Park; particularly with the terrifying strings you hear within the video above. However what has me intrigued at this second is simply how a lot of The Misplaced World: Jurassic Park’s jungle journey sounding rating can be built-in.
Jurassic World Rebirth is, in spite of everything, promising a visit to Isla Sorna, the principle setting of that 1997 sequel. So why not convey a few of the magic you’re going to listen to beneath again into the image?
Watch On
Although I suppose that’d be one other agency handshake of musical connection to 2015’s Jurassic World, as Michael Giacchino did reference that theme. All I’m saying is the subsequent time you re-watch the Indominous Rex battle within the third act, pay attention intently to Blue’s entrance music. You’re welcome.
Trendy composers know the way iconic John Williams’ music is, and Alexandre Desplat is about to show simply how a lot of a deal with he has on that understanding. I do know it’s early, however I’m prepared to exit on a limb and say that Jurassic World Rebirth’s musical rating goes to be one other one I’ll add to my private music assortment.
So if you happen to hear some man yelling within the tri-state space round July 2nd, that’s in all probability me having a little bit of a fan second. Both that or I’m severely being chased by a Tyrannosaurus Rex, and I’m gleefully accepting my remaining destiny.
