Jonathan Bailey
Jonathan Bailey joined Scott ahead of Jurassic World Rebirth.
He discussed entering a franchise built around spectacle while making sure the characters reacted to the creatures as though the danger were real.
The conversation covered physical filming, location work and the difference between acting opposite practical effects and imagining something that would be added later.
Scott also asked about Jonathan’s stage career and the concentration required for theatre compared with film and television.
The interview inevitably touched on Bridgerton and Wicked, two projects that had expanded his international audience.
Jonathan reflected on moving between very different genres while trying to keep each character separate from the public image created by the previous role.
Scott treated the appearance as evidence of an unusually busy period in Jonathan’s career and asked whether he had found any time to process the scale of it.
