The new film slated for 2025 release is going to be a completely fresh take on a Jurassic era.

Koepp has some notable scripts to his credit in his 30-plus year screenwriting career including Mission: Impossible,” “Spider-Man,” “Death Becomes Her,” “Panic Room” and “War of the Worlds.”

As reported, the film will be executive produced by Steven Spielberg through Amblin Entertainment. 

David Leitch’s latest directorial is Emily Blunt and Ryan Gosling-led action comedy “The Fall Guy,” releasing on May 3. 

Leitch has some of the great Hollywood hits at the box office to his directorial credit including “John Wick,” “Atomic Blonde,” “Fast & Furious” spinoff “Hobbes & Shaw,” and “Deadpool 2.″
