Jurassic World Dominion (2022)

Four years after the Lockwood Estate incident and the volcanic eruption on Isla Nublar,[a] de-extinct dinosaurs freely roam the Earth, causing ecological disasters and cruelties against them. Amid global efforts to control the invasive species, Biosyn Genetics established a dinosaur preserve located in the Dolomite Mountains, Italy, where they conduct genomics research, ostensibly seeking groundbreaking pharmacological applications. Claire Dearing, Zia Rodriguez, and Franklin Webb are still with the Dinosaur Protection Group and investigate illegal dinosaur breeding sites, while Claire’s partner, Owen Grady, works as a wrangler relocating stray dinosaurs. At their remote cabin in the Sierra Nevada Mountains, Claire and Owen secretly raise 14-year-old Maisie Lockwood, Benjamin Lockwood’s biogenetic granddaughter, while protecting her from nefarious groups seeking to exploit Maisie’s unique makeup. When Blue, the Velociraptor that Owen raised, arrives with its asexually-reproduced hatchling, Maisie names it Beta after they bond. Having grown increasingly frustrated living in seclusion, Maisie sneaks away. Mercenaries kidnap her and capture Beta. Owen and Claire immediately launch a rescue effort.

Elsewhere, swarms of giant locusts are decimating crops in the south-central United States. Paleobotanist Dr. Ellie Sattler observes that corporate-grown crops using Biosyn seeds are left uneaten, raising suspicions they created the insects. Ellie takes a captured locust to her former partner, paleontologist Dr. Alan Grant. They determine the locust was genetically engineered with Cretaceous-period insect DNA and contemporary migratory locusts. Meanwhile, Franklin, now with the CIA’s dangerous species division, informs Claire and Owen that the kidnappers they’re pursuing are in Malta. Upon arrival, they infiltrate a dinosaur black market, accompanied by Owen’s former Jurassic World colleague Barry Sembène, who works for French Intelligence and is leading a raid. Carnivorous dinosaurs are unleashed during the foray, causing havoc. With Barry’s help, the pair interrogate the leading kidnappers and learn that Maisie and Beta have been transported to Biosyn. Sympathetic cargo pilot Kayla Watts, who witnessed Maisie being trafficked, agrees to fly them there.
