While it’s still unclear who Wise will be playing inJurassic World: Dominion, her teaming up with Pratt’s character in what appears to be an intense action sequence will likely mean she plays a pivotal role in the film. In fact, fans may see her cross paths with many of the characters fromthe originalJurassic Parkfilmlike Sam Neill’s Dr. Alan Grant, Laura Dern’s Ellie Sattler, and Jeff Goldblum’s Ian Malcolm.

Wise, who starred in films like Netflix’sFatherhoodandThe Harder They Fallin 2021, is shown in a new image for theJurassic Worldsequel standing alongside Chris Pratt’s Owen Grady and gearing up to face whatever dinosaurs are coming their way. Other than gripping weapons and posing in their fighting stances, the wintry landscape the two characters are in is worth pointing out, as thepreviousJurassic Parkfilmshave all taken place in tropical, warm locations like the fictional island Isla Nublar. In a post on his official Instagram account, Pratt welcomed Wise to theJurassic Worldfamily, adding that she will make entrance fans won’t soon forget.
