How Scarlett Johansson Took A Cue From Margot Robbie For Her Latest Jurassic World Movie

As a long-time admirer of Scarlett Johansson‘s versatile acting skills and her strategic business acumen, I find myself utterly captivated by her latest move in the entertainment industry. The news about her double role as both star and producer for “Jurassic World 4” is nothing short of inspiring. Much like Margot Robbie did with Barbie, ScarJo has taken control of her career trajectory, using her influence to bring a director she admires, Gareth Edwards, on board.


As a passionate gamer, I’ve been following Scarlett Johansson’s epic journey in the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU), and now that her chapter has closed (which you can rewatch with a Disney+ subscription), she’s got a whole new slate of projects lined up. One of these is the highly-anticipated “Jurassic World 4” movie, where Scarlett will once again grace our screens after the conclusion of “Jurassic World: Dominion”. And guess what? Scarlett seems to have taken a page from Margot Robbie’s book for her upcoming “Jurassic” flick.

Last year’s release of “Barbie” was a massive hit at the cinemas, even earning several nominations for Academy Awards. What made this film truly groundbreaking was the presence of women in key creative roles such as director Greta Gerwig and producer/actress Margot Robbie. A recent article from Bang Showbiz (via Yahoo) shed light on the behind-the-scenes discussions regarding “Jurassic World 4”. It appears that Scarlett Johansson will both produce and star in this upcoming film, and moreover, she played a significant role in deciding who would direct it. The article goes on to say:

Scarlett has been negotiating with the studio for months, making it known that Gareth was her preferred choice to direct. Although he demanded a substantial payment, he has recently agreed to sign on. With Gareth being her top selection, she is now significantly more enthusiastic about participating in the film, and her role as both an actress and producer becomes even more justifiable.

Scarlett Johansson boasts a considerable amount of celebrity influence, and she has also taken on the role of producer for several of her ventures, such as the forthcoming “Tower of Terror” film. Similar to how Margot Robbie utilized her voice for “Barbie,” Johansson donned her producer’s cap to secure Gareth Edwards as director for the upcoming “JW.”

As a long-time fan of both Scarlett Johansson and the Jurassic Park franchise, I must admit that I am quite intrigued by her dual role as producer and actor for the upcoming Jurassic World 4. Given my passion for both dinosaurs and action-packed films, I eagerly await more details about this blockbuster, especially since Johansson’s star power will undoubtedly bring in a larger audience.

It’s clear that Gareth Edwards is a strong contender for the director’s role in the Jurassic franchise, bringing fresh perspectives to the series. He managed to establish his unique touch within the Star Wars universe through “Rogue One,” and boasts both directing and visual effects artist credits. Given that Jurassic World 4 will undoubtedly involve heavy CGI work, it’s understandable that Johansson worked hard to secure Edwards for the position. Moreover, Edwards himself has expressed his eagerness to work on such a project.

It’s anticipated that Jurassic World 4 will hit the big screen on July 2nd, 2025. In the meantime, take a look at the upcoming 2025 movie releases to schedule your cinema visits for the following year.
