UPDATE: Variety have edited their original reporting, clarifying that the footage shown did NOT actually involve a fire-breathing mutant T-Rex:

Correction: An earlier version of this article mistakenly stated that a mutant T-Rex breathes fire. That was a mistake. There’s simply a lot of fire and flame in the scene. Apologies to paleontologists.

Yes, you read that headline correctly. Universal recently unveiled a new trailer for Gareth Edwards' Jurassic World Rebirth at CinemaCon and Variety have a description of what the footage contained. While we're almost certain they're referring to the movie's new D-Rex mutant creature, they mention a fire-breathing mutant Tyrannosaurus... their recollection of the event are as follows:

There’s a dramatic attempt to steal the eggs of a quetzalcoatlus that ends in a high-flying race to escape. Throw in a mosasaur attack that nearly capsizes the boat of a group of researchers and their armed guides. Add in some kind of mutated dinosaur that basically looks like a fire-breathing T-Rex. Oh, and for the less bloodthirsty viewers, there’s also the appearance of a cuddly baby triceratops. Only the creature starts freaking out because — you guessed it — a much more menacing primordial beast needs a snack and only our fearless heroes will hit the spot.

By their description, we're going to assume the fire-breathing T-Rex is in fact the film's bizarre genetically mutated Dinosaur, known as the D-Rex. We knew this abomination would have some unique characteristics but breathing fire was not one we saw coming.

The claim of the mutant T. rex breathing fire is false. Variety made a mistake and misinterpreted a scene where the mutant is surrounded by fire (how they made a mistake like that I have no idea). They've since made a correction. Here's the note they added to the edited article:

"Correction: An earlier version of this article mistakenly stated that a mutant T-Rex breathes fire. That was a mistake. There’s simply a lot of fire and flame in the scene. Apologies to paleontologists."

The only other site to make this claim was Collider, and it's now been revealed that they weren't actually at CinemaCon and were copying descriptions from other sites and took the "fire-breathing" claim from the Variety article.

I've updated the article with their ammendment! Thanks for letting us know, SasquaDash!

I'm very pleased to know this was a misinterpretation!

No problem. People were freaking out over the Variety article, so members of the Jurassic fandom are currently working hard to let people know that it was a mistake.

I can imagine, when I first read it nose dived my excitement for the new film thinking it was going massively off base haha. I'm relieved there will be no fire breathing Dinosaurs in Rebirth.

Thank goodness. Though a fire breathing creature would have been interesting if Biosyn or some new genetics corporation was trying to genetically engineer Dragons from dinosaur DNA. But not from a story delving into the origins of Jurassic Park and InGen
