Major spoilers for Jurassic World Rebirth lie ahead, so read on at your own discretion.
Jurassic World Rebirth – the latest installment in the Jurassic Universe – is finally here, and the film introduces audiences to a cast of new characters. As you’d expect, these new protagonists find themselves in some precarious situations involving dinosaurs. There’s actually one situation at the end of the film that seemingly marks the demise of one character. However, in a wild twist of fate, that development gets wrapped up on a positive note. Mahershala Ali has since spoken to CinemaBlend about what he thinks happened.
with director Gareth Edwards either. I’m not sure if we’ll ever receive a concrete answer there, but I’d be lying if I said I wasn’t happy to see that Duncan survived.
Duncan Kincaid’s characterization does represent one of the best elements of the original Jurassic Park, which writer David Koepp compared to Rebirth in some respects. As much as the movie delivers on dinosaurs and spectacle, it also puts focus on human connections. Duncan is a man who’s lost a child, and it’s for that reason he’s willing to put himself in harm’s way to protect the group, especially the Delgado kids.
At this point, it’s hard to say if Mahershala Ali will reprise his role in another installment of the Steven Spielberg-produced. However, at the very least, the creative team has the option to do so, given his survival and, given the ending of Rebirth, the future of the Jurassic franchise is wide open.
Jurassic World Rebirth is now playing in theaters amid the 2025 movie schedule, so check your local listings. Also, the previous six films in the series are currently available to stream with a Peacock subscription.
