Which Jurassic Park film was the first in the franchise to use the title Jurassic World?

Jurassic World was the first film in the franchise to use the title Jurassic World.

Released in 2015, Jurassic World is the fourth theatrical film in the series and the first to use the new title. It is set on Isla Nublar decades after the events of the original Jurassic Park, with a fully functioning dinosaur theme park attracting large crowds. The film introduces Owen Grady and Claire Dearing and centers on the escape of the genetically engineered Indominus rex.

The title signals both a new story era and a change in the park’s status. Unlike the unfinished attraction in the 1993 film, Jurassic World is operating commercially before the crisis begins. The film was directed by Colin Trevorrow and produced by Steven Spielberg as an executive producer. It was followed by Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom in 2018 and Jurassic World Dominion in 2022. The title is sometimes confused with the trilogy’s second or third installment, but the first film is simply Jurassic World.
