Jurassic World Rebirth director Gareth Edwards was more than happy to get this useful advice from Steven Spielberg on his dinosaur adventure sequel.

That Jurassic World Rebirth is the seventh film in a franchise started by Steven Spielberg should make at least one thing obvious. The film’s existence alone is a tribute to the iconic director. And while previous iterations have honored the filmmaker’s work in other ways, Rebirth takes things to a whole other level.

The director spoke to Business Insider about the hourslong phone calls with Steven Spielberg and why he'll never make another "Star Wars" movie.
