Let’s talk about the Jurassic World Dominion New Characters. The final installment in the Jurassic World saga, Jurassic World Dominion, is set to hit theatres worldwide this week, and as the final installment in a six-film epic, it will reunite the cast of the new trilogy with some actors from the original. Chris Pratt and Bryce Dallas Howard have starred in the Jurassic World trilogy, but aside from a few cameos, the original characters haven’t shared the screen with the newbies. Until now, that is.
Jurassic World Dominion has a tremendous job ahead of it, finishing the Jurassic World trilogy and bringing the Jurassic World group together with the characters from Jurassic Park. However, in addition to bringing together two casts, the film introduces a number of new characters to the franchise.
Jurassic World Dominion New Characters
Dominion is likewise set four years following Jurassic World: the Fallen Kingdom, and it will explore how humans have evolved to coexist with dinosaurs. With huge scaly beasts roaming the Earth, mankind must rebuild and reconsider how they will continue to live on the earth, or face extinction.
Kayla Watts (DeWanda Wise)
Kayla Watts, an ex-army pilot, now flies anybody, anywhere for the proper price, which has led her to work in the criminal underground. Kayla is pure adventure, but she’s also coming to terms with how horrible the society she’s gotten herself wrapped up in is, and she wants a way out, according to writer-director Colin Trevorrow. She’s re-establishing her moral compass, recognizing that ignoring something you know is bad isn’t enough.
Kayla is a misfit, a free agent, but with swagger, according to co-writer Emily Carmichael, who compares the figure to Indiana Jones. We find her in an action-adventure environment… this amazing underground dinosaur marketplace… and she comes from a planet unlike any of the other characters. She lives there and is familiar and at ease with it, which gives her this larger-than-life, genuine adventurous persona.
Ramsay Cole (Mamoudou Athie)
Ramsay Cole works for Biosyn, the villainous corporation at the center of Jurassic World Dominion. Though he doesn’t like the company’s terrible motives at first, Cole is forced to confront his own ideals. Biosyn is marketed as a think tank with all of these young brains working for the benefit of humanity, according to actor Mamoudou Athie, but at its core, Biosyn is solely motivated by greed and domination.
Soyona Santos (Dichen Lachman)
Soyona Santos serves as a link between Biosyn and the illegal dinosaur smuggling world, though she hires others to do the dirty deed and never gets her hands dirty. Soyona is fierce, strong, and driven, according to Dichen Lachman, who plays the part. She just likes to get the task done at the end of the day. The figure also has a lot of ambiguity. She’s assigned assignments, but she’s a bit mysterious otherwise.
The OG Jurassic Park Characters Returning
Alan Grant (Sam Neill)
Dr. Alan Grant was played by Sam Neill in the first Jurassic Park film, and he returned for his role in Jurassic Park III. In the first film, Grant is a world-renowned paleontologist who is tasked with inspecting the titular amusement park on Isla Nebula. The dinosaurs flee, and Grant with his partner Ellie Sattler barely make it out alive.
Alan & Ellie are no longer dating in Jurassic Park III, and Alan is misled into visiting Isla Sorna, nicknamed Site B. Grant almost escapes the island after the metaphorical “hit the fan” once more, which makes his return for more dinosaur adventure in Jurassic World Dominion all the more remarkable.
Ellie Sattler (Laura Dern)
In the first Jurassic Park, Laura Dern played paleobotanist Ellie Sattler, who travels to Isla Nebula alongside Grant in exchange for money for their dig. Sattler returns to Jurassic Park III, however she is no longer dating Alan, has a husband and children, and works as a children’s novelist. But she kept in touch with Alan, and the two are rejoined in Jurassic Park Dominion, with Ellie asking him on a new adventure with the question, “You coming or what?”
Ian Malcolm (Jeff Goldblum)
In three Jurassic films, Jeff Goldblum has portrayed mathematician and catastrophe theory expert Ian Malcolm, with Dominion being his fourth. He flirts with Ellie and frustrates Alan in the first Jurassic Park before teaming up with them to combat the deadly Velociraptors. In the follow-up The Lost World, Malcolm explores Site B, where he experiences more murder and destruction.
As a result, Malcolm testifies before Parliament in Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom, where he discusses the risks of cloning. Malcolm reappears in Jurassic World Dominion, where he continues to bang the same drum, declaring in the trailer, “We not only have little dominion over nature, we’re subjugated to it.”
