Both Johansson and Evans have been Hollywood’s favorite ‘will they, won’t they’ couple for ages. With nine movies under their belt and sizzling chemistry that could melt glaciers, it’s no wonder fans have been shipping them harder than FedEx. But behind the scenes, it was a whole different story.

This is huge news, especially after that last Jurassic World movie kinda bombed. But fear not, ScarJo is bringing in the big guns. Gareth Edwards is directing and they’re already talking about bringing in Bridgerton’s very own Jonathan Bailey to spice things up. Let’s just hope those dinosaurs behave themselves this time!
