With Jurassic World: Rebirth taking a bite out of the box office, Jurassic Park fans get welcome news as the earliest installments of the dinosaur-heavy franchise land a major streaming home. Netflix is set to house the first Jurassic Park films later this summer.

Per ComicBook.com, Jurassic Park, The Lost World and Jurassic Park III are each coming to Netflix on Aug. 1. The trio of films joins Jurassic World entries such as Jurassic Park: Fallen Kingdom and Jurassic World Dominion on Netflix, plus the animated series, Jurassic World: Chaos Theory, allowing fans to enjoy an abundance of content from the Jurassic Park franchise.

Starting in 1993, the Jurassic Park film series has been a gem for Universal Pictures ever since the rights to its titular book, penned by Michael Crichton, were bought three years earlier. Much like the book, the original Jurassic Park film, directed by Steven Spielberg, became a smash hit.

Jurassic World Rebirth, the seventh installment in the iconic Jurassic Park film series, is now roaring into theatres worldwide. The latest entry, directed by Gareth Edwards, features Scarlett Johansson, Mahershala Ali, and Jonathan Bailey in the lead roles. While the film has a modest 51% critics’ score on Rotten Tomatoes, its audience score is significantly higher at 72%.

But how are moviegoers responding to the film and rating it on IMDb? Scroll down to know how Jurassic World Rebirth stacks up against every other live-action movie and the two animated series in the franchise in terms of their IMDb user ratings.

I’ll never forget the first time I watched Jurassic Park. While I didn’t have the privilege of attending its original theatrical run, I remember begging my mom to rent the movie on VHS and then watching it three times in a row in utter amazement. Naturally, I became obsessed with this blockbuster Michael Crichton adaptation and soon sought out the source material for more dinosaur-related thrills.

Like many other kids at the time, I was unprepared for the novel’s dark tone and copious amounts of gore (not to mention all of the hard sci-fi elements). However, I soon grew to appreciate how one of the biggest summer blockbusters of all time was actually based on a weird little horror book. And in honor of the latest entry in the Jurassic Park series promising to bring genetic terror back to the films after years of tamed velociraptors, we...

The "Jurassic World" trilogy, not unlike the "Star Wars" prequel trilogy, is going to go down as a mixed bag in one of the world's biggest franchises. The first movie in the series, directed by Colin Trevorrow, was a massive hit, bringing us back to a fully functioning dinosaur theme park. The sequel, "Fallen Kingdom," literally blew up Isla Nublar and helped set up a world where dinosaurs and humans would be forced to co-exist. 2022's "Dominion" never fully committed to what we thought was going to happen: dinosaurs rampaging in cities across the world. So, why didn't that happen, exactly?

In a recent interview with The Hollywood Reporter, Trevorrow was asked about the lack of dinosaurs attacking cities in the "Jurassic World" trilogy. Though "Dominion" largely works to isolate the dinosaurs once again, instead focusing on giant locusts for much of the run time,...

Jurassic World Rebirth, the seventh installment in the iconic Jurassic Park film series, is all set to roar into theatres on July 2, 2025. The latest entry features Scarlett Johansson, Mahershala Ali, and Jonathan Bailey in the lead roles and is directed by Gareth Edwards.

Jurassic World: Rebirth will stomp into theaters in just a few weeks, but another project set in the world of dinosaurs just got a thrilling update. Netflix has officially confirmed that Jurassic World: Chaos Theory has been renewed for Season 4, and the streamer even debuted the first image from the upcoming season, which can be found below. Chaos Theory Season 4 will premiere on Netflix on November 20 later this year, around seven months after the third season hit the streamer earlier this year. Netflix has released three seasons of Jurassic World: Chaos Theory in just under a year — an impressive turnaround considering the platform has a history with long inter-season gaps. As with all previous seasons, fans can expect every episode of Jurassic World: Chaos Theory to hit the streamer at once.

Jurassic World: Chaos Theory was written and created by Scott Kreamer and Zach Stentz, with Nick Rodriguez, Sara Karimipour,...

Colin Trevorrow has his eye on the next generation of filmmakers.

After shepherding his Jurassic World trilogy to the box-office tune of nearly $4 billion worldwide, the filmmaker turned his attention to his production banner, Metronome Film Company. Trevorrow’s mission is to create opportunities for up-and-coming filmmakers in the same way that Steven Spielberg once did for him on 2015’s Jurassic World.

“Because I’ve had some success in my career, my absolute top priority is not just paying it forward, but also being able to introduce new talent to move us forward,” Trevorrow tells The Hollywood Reporter. “We don’t have farm teams in Hollywood, and I think that it’s a responsibility of filmmakers to identify who’s next. A lot of these icons that we have now were identified by another filmmaker, and that’s something I would love to have on my record.”

Character details are under wraps. Released last June, the book centers on eight-year-old Bela, who lives in a home strained by her parents’ troubled marriage, only to see her life further upended by a sinister entity she calls “Other Mommy.” When this malevolent presence emerges from her closet, persistently asking, “Can I go inside your heart?”, Bela refuses. But soon, Other Mommy’s manifestations become increasingly aggressive, threatening the safety of Bela’s family.

Dreams have a lot of power to affect us even after we wake up, and Henry Goldingis about to experience that power on a much greater level. Premiering at the Toronto International Film Festival in 2024, Daniela Forever features the Crazy Rich Asians star as a heartbroken man named Nicolas, still reeling from the tragic death of his girlfriend, the titular Daniela (Beatrice Grannò). To recover from the shocking loss, he starts undergoing a clinical trial allowing him to control his dreams and, in turn, bring Daniela back... sort of. Collider can exclusively share the official trailer that shows how the lucid dreams bring light back into his life, but it starts becoming a problem as he becomes obsessed with the fantasy just beyond the waking world.

The footage opens with bright and colorful wide-screen shots of Daniela amid happy moments with Nicolas while a cavalcade of voices calls her name.

Exclusive: The Cape New Writers Fellowship, a non-studio professional development program for emerging writers in Hollywood, enters its thirteenth year with a new cohort of emerging screenwriters. The 2025 cohorts are Aj Currie, Callie Chiang, Justin Omori, Luke Fujimoto Jensen, Kausar Mohammed, Minoti Vaishnav, and Tia Kaiulani Kanaeholo.

Cape will also make significant programming enhancements to address the entertainment industry’s transitional period. Said enhancements feature in-person and virtual panels and masterclasses exploring potential writing pathways into animation, features, video games, narrative audio, podcasts, verticals, and more. The program also provided education on technological advancements and considerations impacting the industry. Additionally, Cape opened applications for the Fellowship to the staff writer level, to support previously staffed writers facing challenges in the lower-level ranks.

“Entertainment in all its forms thrives on fresh voices, and the Cape New Writers Fellowship opens doors for emerging writers to be heard. Given the dramatic contraction in the industry,...

If you’re looking for something new to binge-watch, Netflix always has you covered with new releases and April is no different. Whether you’re looking for the latest installment of the heartwarming docuseries “Love on the Spectrum,” a new batch of feel-bad from “Black Mirror” or the last season of “You,” here’s a handy guide to the best new shows streaming on Netflix in April.

“Love on the Spectrum” Season 3 Madison and Tyler in “Love on the Spectrum” (Netflix)

The heartwarming docu-reality series “Love on the Spectrum” returned to Netflix this spring. This season picks back up with fan favorites Connor, Tanner, Abbey and David, to name a few, and introduces the audience to some new faces, Madison and Pari. Season 3 even features the series’ first queer relationship. The hopeful singles make breakthrough discoveries, and the happy couples face tough decisions as they navigate the ever-confusing world of romance.

“Adolescence” has not stopped gaining steam. Last week, the U.K. limited series joined Netflix’s list of its most popular English-language series of all time last week at No. 9, knocking “Bridgerton” Season 2 off the list and pushing “Stranger Things” Season 3 down to No. 10. Now, “Adolescence” is in fourth place on the list with 114 million views in only 24 days.

The series is now only behind “Wednesday” Season 1 (252.1 million views), “Stranger Things” Season 4 (140.7 million views) and “Dahmer: Monster” (115.6 million) on the list. It appears likely to eventually usurp at least the “Stranger Things” and “Dahmer,” as Netflix measures this list based on 91 days of viewing for each title, so “Adolescence” still has more than two months to catch up.

17.8 million of the show’s 114 million-view total came during the May 31-April 6 viewing window, making it the No. 1 TV title of the week in its fourth week on Netflix.

In the second season of Jurassic World: Chaos Theory, we had seen that Brooklynn had decided to go with Soyona Santos, and that had left all the other members of the Nublar Six astonished. They were already disappointed in her for faking her death, and after she left with Santos, they were no longer sure about what she wanted. Brooklynn knew that even if her friends made her their enemy, she wouldn’t put their lives at risk by asking them to help her out. Brooklynn was aware that she might end up losing everything by the time her mission ended, but she was ready to make that sacrifice if she could save the world in return. So let’s recap all the important events of season 3 to find out if Brooklynn was able to stop Santos or not.

How did the Nublar Six reach Italy?

The ending of Jurassic World: Chaos Theory Season 3 was largely about the Handler getting her revenge on Soyona Santos for separating her from Atrociraptors. But before getting to that, I have to make a clarification. While talking about the ending of Season 2, I was a little confused about the timeline of the events of the show and how it matched up with what was happening in the movies, especially after Biosyn CEO Lewis Hodgson and Santos entered the picture. With its Malta set piece, Season 3 made it clear that the show was taking place parallel to the movies. I mean, we kind of saw the moment where Santos got the Atrociraptors to go after Claire Dearing while the chaos at the underground dino market spilled onto the streets and Owen Grady used a bike to escape the Atrociraptors that were after him. We didn’t learn what happened to Barry...

Despite being called “inherently unfranchiseable” by Jurassic World director Colin Trevorrow, the series has expanded its story and legacy with each new installment.

One of the most well-perceived products of the Jurassic World franchise is not a movie, but an impressively orchestrated TV series. Netflix’s Jurassic World: Camp Cretaceous debuted five years ago, featuring the misadventures of six teenagers stuck on Isla Nublar during the events of the first Jurassic World movie. From then on, the famous Nublar Six fought all odds to not only rescue themselves but save the dinosaurs as well.

They were once again left heartbroken after Brooklynn chose to go with The Broker alone instead of coming home with them.

As Jurassic World Rebirth continues to share details, the movie is already claiming to correct a 32-year mistake. Jurassic Park is an iconic story that has passed through the hands of countless filmmakers, writers, and creative visionaries, each leaving their mark on its enduring legacy. However, the sheer scale of the story, adapted from Michael Crichton's groundbreaking novel, meant that many scenes were cut, adapted, or completely rewritten for the big screen. Now, with Jurassic World Rebirth, the franchise appears to be revisiting its roots, potentially addressing fan demands to see elements from the novel that have remained untapped since 1993.

Written by celebrated sci-fi author Michael Crichton, 1990's Jurassic Park transported readers to a futuristic theme park where genetic engineering...

Netflix has quite a large slate of new and returning series coming in 2025. The slate was previewed Wednesday at the streamer’s annual Next on Netflix event in Los Angeles, which was also streamed across the globe.

Some of the most anticipated projects include Stranger Things 5 and Wednesday Season 2, neither of which have premiere dates just yet. So far, Netflix has revealed a huge slate for February, as well as a smattering of series that are expected through August, but a large portion of the series the streamer says we’ll see this year haven’t been confirmed for a specific date yet.

Of the dates that were revealed, perhaps the biggest surprise is that the third and final season of Squid Game is coming sooner than audiences might have anticipated, premiering on June 27. June will also bring another season of Ginny & Georgia.

The year will also see another...

The nominations for the 36th Annual GLAAD Media Awards were announced on Wednesday, totaling more than 300 nominees from some of the year’s most talked-about series, films and TV programming.

“The GLAAD Media Awards were created nearly four decades ago to champion LGBTQ stories amid a deeply hostile and unsafe time for our community. Today, this mission holds true and ever-more important as attacks against LGBTQ people are not only growing, but finding new avenues,” GLAAD President & CEO Sarah Kate Ellis said in a statement. “Whether it’s rampant misinformation or defamation of transgender people, LGBTQ youth, or the...

Despite the increasing popularity of anime, there was only one anime series that made the Top 10 globally for Netflix Original releases in 2024. This is despite the numerous major anime released during the year, some of which had been hyped through the roof.

However, even with this competition, a rather experimental Gundam series was ultimately the only anime to hit a particular milestone for the streaming service. Mobile Suit Gundam remains one of the biggest anime franchises in the world, with many of the shows available to stream on various platforms. Almost always a popular watch, the most recent series attained an interesting and unexpected level of success in 2024, especially on streaming platform Netflix.

The Motion Picture Sound Editors (Mpse) have announced the nominations for the 72nd Annual Mpse Golden Reel Awards, honoring outstanding achievement in sound editing, sound design, music editing, and foley artistry in film, television, and video games. While more casual moviegoers (and fans of “The Thrilling Adventure Hour” bits) can easily recognize the creative wizardry in physically producing sound effects via foley, every part of the sound process is crucial to making us feel the physical and emotional reality of the films and shows we watch.

The nominees are very much in line with the frontrunners for the 2025 Best Sound Oscars. The “Dune: Part Two” team was recognized for dialogue editing/Adr, effects/foley, and music editing, as was “Deadpool & Wolverine,” with “Alien: Romulus,” “Wicked,” and “Emilia Pérez” all scoring nominations in feature sound categories as well.

One of the most popular romantic comedy actors of the 2020s, Darren Barnet has been quite busy recently. The 33-year-old actor made his name playing the dashing Paxton Hall-Yoshida on the Netflix series "Never Have I Ever." Since then, he has seemingly maintained a close relationship with the behemoth streaming service, having been asked back for several projects since the previous series ended.

As of writing, his body of work has begun to break free of his not-so-modest rom-com beginnings -- though he still popped up in one of the most popular films of the genre released in the last decade. Moreover, he's also lent his voice to several animated series (targeted at kids and adults alike), cameoed in a high-profile remake of a classic '80s action drama, and even played a key supporting role in one of the few decent video game movies to ever make it to theaters.

They don’t call Netflix the “King of Streaming” for nothing. The streaming pioneer turned industry leader offers the most robust lineup of new exclusives from around the world, cleans up in awards television and regularly dominates the most-watched weekly series. Despite strike impacts, 2024 was no different and there were plenty of must-watch Netflix shows this year, including big Emmys winners like “Baby Reindeer,” highly-anticipated series like “Squid Game 2” and “3 Body Problem,” as well as a few you might not have heard of yet. Here are the best Netflix Original Series of 2024.

“The Talented Mr. Ripley” is one of the best films of the 1990s, so there was reason to be wary of a new adaptation of Patricia Highsmith’s novel. But Steven Zaillian’s limited series “Ripley” is so distinct it exists as its own, wonderful take on the story of a lonely,...
