Jonathan Bailey recently shared that Jeff Goldblum contacted him when he landed the Jurassic World: Rebirth gig.

Speaking with PEOPLE Magazine, the actor, who found fame by starring in Bridgerton as Anthony, recalled the time when his Wicked co-star Jeff Goldblum reached out to him

Jonathan recounted him saying that "just have a great time."

He even gushed over the actors who starred in the previous three Jurassic Park movies by saying, "They're all just incredible, iconic actors."

It is pertinent to mention here that Jeff played the character of The Wizard of Oz in the musical Wicked whereas in Jurassic Parke he starred as Dr. Ian Malcolm, a mathematician and chaos theorist.

Moreover, the Bridgerton star admitted in a former chat the pressure of leading his upcoming role as Dr Loomis in Jurassic World: Rebirth, releasing on 2nd July 2025.

The insider mentioned, “There are moments where, yes, you feel like you have to be excellent just to prove you can do it.”

He went on to add, “There’s the weight of history, and the many brilliant people who came before who’ve changed how we talk about sexuality. Being an out gay actor, historically, meant you wouldn’t be able to play straight—and there weren’t many gay parts to play, either.”

“That’s changed massively. But there’s still work to do,” the actor noted in this chat with The Hollywood Reporter.
