As the franchise is gearing up for the ‘Jurassic World Rebirth,’ Jeff Goldblum has ruled out his return as Dr. Ian Malcolm.

“I think Ian Malcolm may have ridden off into the sunset. Maybe. Because this next one — my friend, Scarlett Johansson, and my new friend, Jonathan Bailey from ‘Wicked,’ I think, are taking up the reins. And I can’t wait to see what they do. I think that’s a good idea,” he said during an interview with a US media outlet.

Goldblum also reflected on his reunion with Dern and Neill, calling it a “very enjoyable experience.”

“I enjoyed working on it and enjoyed trying to make it good. I think it sold a bunch of tickets. But, you know… Everybody’s got an opinion about it. It’s tough to make a good movie,” the Hollywood star said.

It is to be noted that ‘Jurassic World Rebirth,’ starring Scarlett Johansson, Jonathan Bailey and Mahershala Ali, is set to hit theaters on July 2, 2025.

The cast also includes Rupert Friend, Philippine Velge, Bechir Sylvain, Ed Skrein, Manuel Garcia-Rulf, Luna Blaise, David Iacono and Audrina Miranda.
