The Jurassic Park saga, born from Michael Crichton's imaginative novel and Steven Spielberg's cinematic genius, captivated audiences in the 1990s. Decades later, the Jurassic World trilogy reignited the franchise, generating an additional $4 billion at the box office across three films. With Jurassic World: Rebirth arriving in July, this guide helps you navigate the sprawling storyline. Discover the optimal viewing order – chronologically or by release date.

Six feature-length Jurassic films comprise the main saga – three Jurassic Park installments and three Jurassic World entries. Jurassic World: Rebirth will be the seventh. The expanded canon also includes two short films and an animated Netflix series, incorporated into the chronology below.
(Minor spoilers regarding characters, settings, and plot points are included below.)
The chronological order largely mirrors the release order, except for the short films and Netflix series. This adaptation of Crichton's novel introduces the core concept: cloned dinosaurs populate a theme park (Isla Nublar) owned by a reckless entrepreneur (Richard Attenborough).
Paleontologist Alan Grant (Sam Neill), paleobotanist Ellie Sattler (Laura Dern), and mathematician Ian Malcolm (Jeff Goldblum) assess the park's safety alongside John Hammond's grandchildren, Lex and Tim Murphy. A storm and sabotage disable security, unleashing the dinosaurs. The ensuing escape involves velociraptors and a T-Rex.
