The Jurassic World franchise is all set to leave fans’ minds completely blown if the most recent casting reports about the next film in the series turn out to be true. According to what the sources currently have to say, Bridgerton actor Jonathan Bailey and Marvel actress Scarlett Johansson seem to be the latest actors at the helm of this upcoming movie.

While these are only reports as of now, this star-studded cast could turn out to be one helluva fine of a decision for the saga if true. In fact, for one that is more or less a succeeding reboot of the original Jurassic Park franchise, this casting could lead the saga toward an incredible milestone by setting a rare record in Hollywood’s entertainment industry!

Jurassic World Star Casting: Jonathan Bailey Alongside Scarlett Johansson?

The Jurassic saga continues to bloom and entice its viewers with each new movie, and it seems like the next film in the new reboot of the franchise would be nothing short of pure entertainment either. This comes after recent reports from Deadline exclusively shared the names of actors whom the franchise is now eyeing to lead the next movie.

Per the sources, it is none other than the fan-favorite Jonathan Bailey who is reportedly being eyed to play the male protagonist in the next movie. According to what Deadline reported, Bailey is “in early talks to star in Universal and Amblin Entertainment’s new Jurassic World movie.” Now that is something truly exciting.

But that isn’t all. Starring alongside him will reportedly be the A-listed heartthrob actress Scarlett Johansson. Moreover, Gareth Edwards is also ostensibly tied to the project as its director, as Deadline reported that he spent “all of last week meeting with execs.” Thus, so far, the casting and crew don’t look that bad.

Adding to this is news that this next installment in the Jurassic saga would be “a completely fresh take on a Jurassic era,” and will not be related to the events in the previous film starring Chris Pratt and Bryce Dallas Howard in the lead. Well, that inevitably sounds good, but not as good as the record the Bridgerton actor could set if these reports turn out to be true.

Allow us to explain: If Bailey is indeed the final choice for the lead in this upcoming film, then it would set a major milestone for the Jurassic era, for the Fellow Travelers actor is gay, and no major franchise has previously had any actor from the LGBTQ community lead the saga.

Thus, not only would it be a first for the Jurassic franchise, but it would also set a very rare Hollywood record!

Fans are More Than Happy with Jonathan Bailey’s Casting Reports

While these are only reports as of now, fans are still as content with this news as ever. Not only are they excited about this remarkably talented duo pairing up, but Bailey’s fanbase is going out of their minds cheering him on for this reported casting. In fact, some are even going as far as calling it “JB world dominion”!

All in all, here are their excited reactions to this casting report on X:

To put it in a nutshell: If these reports turn out to be true, then not only would this film end up winning hearts, but it would also set a rare record for the Jurassic saga. Either way, it’s a win-win situation for the Jurassic World franchise.
