DeWanda joins a cast that includes Chris Pratt and Bryce Dallas Howard, who return from the previous films, as well as Laura Dern and Jeff Goldblum, who starred in the original Jurassic Park.

Mamoudou Athie is also joining the cast.

Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom ended with dinosaurs leaving the island and entering civilization, so it’s likely that the third movie will pick up where that film left off.
