Jurassic World: Rebirth Stars Film at UK’s University of Greenwich

Posted on by Caleb Burnett

Old Royal Naval College on the campus of the University of Greenwich was the site of at least two days of filming for Jurassic World: Rebirth during its time in the UK. Stars Scarlett Johansson, Jonathan Bailey, and Rupert Friend were on-site in-costume, accompanied by new props representing full-size dinosaurs and skeleton specimens in transport crates from a museum.

*Mild spoilers likely ahead for Jurassic World: Rebirth*

Zora Bennett (Scarlett Johansson’s tactical operations expert) was seen in a very professional, dark blue suit outfit, and Martin Krebs (Rupert Friend’s big pharma representative) could be spotted in a suit not far behind her. Dr. Henry Loomis (Jonathan Bailey’s paleontologist) was also spotted in professional attire alongside them, walking in a regal hallway setting filled with large pillars and classical art. Multiple prop dinosaur skeletons were also seen displayed around them and in wooden crates, seemingly headed to or coming from the “Neo-Jurassic Wing” of the “Natural History Museum of North America.” While that museum and wing name are technically fictional, they are likely new lore additions in the seventh Jurassic Park film.

Taking in the classical and educational look of this filming location and the professional look of the stars’ costumes, we could be seeing a museum or educational building in which the audience, with Zora and Krebs, meets Loomis for the first time while in his professional environment. A first act Jurassic exposition scene in what might be a museum with dinosaur displays sounds fantastic. More photos, videos, and speculation can be found on social media as well as in our latest Jurassic World: Rebirth news update video.
