Scarlett Johansson, Colin Jost Enjoy Date Night at Jurassic World Rebirth Premiere

Jurassic World Rebirth was a family affair for Luna Blaise.

In fact, the 23-year-old got so close with costar Scarlett Johansson that she was able to absorb some wisdom from the two-time Oscar nominee while on set.

“She told me to hold your own,” Luna exclusively told E! News' Erin Lim Rhodes at the New York City premiere of the film June 23. “Being a woman on set, being number one and being the captain of that ship, [she said to] know your worth, know you're there for a reason. You wouldn't have been given the opportunity if you weren't ready for it.”

The Manifest alum of Scarlett, “That's number one, wow. That's auntie. That's my girl. I'll go for her for anything.”

And while Luna was grateful for her connection with the Marvel star, it’s not the only friendship she built on set. In fact, Wicked star Jonathan Bailey also brought great energy to the jungles of Thailand, one of the locations where they filmed the dinosaur movie. 

“He had just done reshoots of Wicked and he was in the middle of going back and forth,” Luna explained to E!. “It was amazing. It was very special to see him coming off that [and] coming to do this.”

She continued, “He's a magical wonder. I don't know how he does it. He’s continuing to dance through life, babe.”

Now that Luna has bonded with the cast—which also includes Mahershala Ali and Rupert Friend—through intense physical training and strenuous filming locations, she’s excited to celebrate the cast and crew’s accomplishments.

“I'm so happy that we're here and experiencing this all together,” she shared. “It’s really a family unit. It's so unbelievably special. We're all just so stoked.”
