On Monday, the “Jurassic Park” Student, 71 years old, dedicated A special video message to Johansson during her appearance in Today to congratulate her on being cast in the upcoming fourth installment of the “Jurassic World” reboot series.
“Dr. Johansson, I’m Jeff Goldblum. This is what I want to tell you. This much I know: Scarlett will find a way,” he said, nodding to his famous line from the first film, “Life will find a way.“
“Don’t let yourself be eaten unless you want to,” she added, wearing a neon T. rex sweater.
Goldblum played Dr. Ian Malcolm in 1993’s “Jurassic Park” and returned for three more films in the franchise.
To end his message, the veteran actor blew a kiss to Johansson before adding: “I love you.”
Johansson gushed to Today’s Savannah Guthrie about the unexpected message.
“My God, I can’t believe Jeff said that to me,” she said. “I think my life is complete now. I can retire now.”
Goldblum’s welcoming remarks bring things full circle for Johansson, who has long expressed her desire to join the hit sci-fi franchise.
Last month, Johansson, 39, revealed to Comic who spent a decade trying to land a role in dinosaur movies before finally being cast.
“I’ve been trying to get into this franchise in any way possible for over 10 years,” Johansson explained. “I’m like, ‘I’m going to die in the first five minutes! I can be eaten by anyone! I’m going to do craft service!’ I’ll do anything for it.”
“The fact that it happened this way, at this time, is really incredible,” he added. “I can’t believe it.”
The untitled fourth “Jurassic World” film is set for release on July 2, 2025.
