The Action Girl trope doesn't apply to the standards of non-humans, who are far too different to categorize in the way that makes Action Girl a meaningful trope.


* ActionGirl: Because the dinosaurs in the first movie were specifically made female to prevent breeding, she qualifies.

An old ''Tyrannosaurus rex'' and the face of Jurassic World; she was one of the dinosaurs who escaped during the initial disaster at Jurassic Park and is now relocated to Jurassic World as something of a mascot. Queen of Jurassic Park and World -- a title definitely earned and ''not'' just given to her because she's very big and dangerous -- she is ''still'' capable of kicking arse, even at the age of twenty five.

** Decades later in ''Jurassic World'', she had no idea that the big predator intruding her territory was a sadistic monster, but the ''Indominus'' would have killed the heroes without her unwitting aid.

** In ''Fallen Kingdom'', she has several as her predatory instincts not only [[spoiler:save Owen from a pissed off ''Carnotaurus'']], but afterwards she knocks the gyro sphere Claire and Franklin are hiding in, sending it rolling down the hill ahead of the eruption to safety. At the end of the film, she eats [[spoiler:Mills, who is an unambiguous villain and murderer. She even gets an unknowing dig at the ''Indominus'' in, smashing the only recovered piece of its skeleton and therefore limiting what research Wu can carry out in the future]].

* AdaptationalJerkass: While still a huge threat in the novel that kills several other dinosaurs and is indirectly responsible for the death of [[spoiler:Hammond]], it doesn't actually straight-up kill anyone as opposed to the movie where she rips Gennaro in half. [[KickTheSonOfABitch Then]] [[JustDesserts again]], [[AssholeVictim Gennaro had it coming]]. And in the end, Rexy actually ignores the humans in favor of bigger and more interesting preys: two ''Velociraptor''s.

* BigEntrance: In ''Jurassic Park'', Rexy has one of the most famous Big Entrances in cinematic history, [[spoiler:preceded by impact tremors and culminating in everyone present looking on in horror as she effortlessly breaks free. In ''Jurassic World'', her entrance is equally epic but tonally distinct. As a combination of ominous drums and an increasingly heroic overture play, her paddock door opens and she strides out of the darkness. The whole scene balances the sense that this animal is as dangerous as the ''Indominus'' yet is still presented in the film under an heroic light.]]
* BreakoutCharacter: In a sense. She was always intended to be a big part of the film but once the raptors were introduced she originally disappeared from the rest of the film. When searching for an ending, Spielberg supposedly realised that Rexy was the true star of the flick, and had her endgame rescue added in. She went on to be the most recurring dinosaur in the franchise, appearing in numerous non-canon comics and video games, before returning to the films with the World movies.
* TheBusCameBack: There were several other ''T. rex'' specimens who appeared in ''Film/TheLostWorldJurassicPark'' and ''Film/JurassicParkIII'', but the ''T. rex'' in ''Film/JurassicWorld'' is this original ''T. rex'' who is being featured after a 22 year absence.

* CompositeCharacter: There were two ''Tyrannosaurus rex'' in the book, an adult and a juvenile. While Rexy is primary based on the adult ''T. rex'', she also fulfills the juvenile's role of eating the assigned caretaker who abandons Hammond's kids during the breakout. Interestingly, ''Film/JurassicWorld''[='=]s [[AllThereInTheManual website]] mentions that the old ''T. rex'' paddock was intended to house both an adult ''T. rex'' and a juvenile one.
* CoveredInScars: Over her thirty years, Rexy has been in the wars once or twice. There are the injuries on the left side of her back, neck and jaw gained from The Big One in ''Jurassic Park''. She's also got a large number of small scars around her nose and eyes likely gained from living in the wild and several big cuts along her right side and her legs, corresponding to some of her ''Indominus'' wounds.

Blue's intervention not only saves her life, but when Rexy re-enters the fight she's slamming the ''Indominus'' through buildings and throwing it like a ragdoll.]]
* HistoricalBadassUpgrade: ZigZagged. Rexy has [[LivingMotionDetector vision problems]] in the first film unlike the real deal and scientific studies since the movie's release suggested the real-life ''T. rex'' was just as tough if not tougher than Rexy when it comes to combat. However, Rexy has two key advantages over her real-life counterpart: 1) She can live significantly beyond the lifespan of a real ''T. rex'' thanks to modern healthcare provided by her caretakers and 2) She can run up to 32 MPH while the real animal is generally believed to have been only capable of about 12 MPH.

* LastOfHerKind: Born in 1988, oldest among seven tyrannosaurs, Rexy has out lived all of her "siblings" and any of the animals born on Isla Sorna after she was moved to the park (as Masrani's illegal clones, particularly the ''Spinosaurus'', had a severe impact on the island's ecosystem with all survivors eventually shipped to Nublar). While the the genetics team still had access to the tyrannosaur genome, no other rexes were created; thus, she is -- as far as we know -- the last of her species on earth.

[[folder:''Tyrannosaurus'' in general]]
* TheAce: ''Tyrannosaurus'' is often depicted in the series as easily the most capable and majestic dinosaur, or at least second only to the ''Velociraptor''. With a massive size, intimidating expressions, having incredible strength as well as adequate speed, and being well-equipped to deal with nearly everything that can get in its way, ''Tyrannosaurus'' is an ace compared to nearly every other dinosaur it could compete against. While the ''Velociraptor'' has the Tyrant Lizard King beaten in intelligence and ferocity, the T. rex still has an advantage in a direct fight.
* {{Determinator}}: A ''Tyrannosaurus'' is a very determined animal and very often doesn't give up on what actions it wants to take part in. In fact, the only times it stopped was when it chased away a rescue jeep or when an [=InGen=] worker was able to escape via a helicopter, though around that point, Rexy was more interested in driving them out of her territory rather than wanting to eat them. For extra points, their own offspring can be a sensitive spot for them and they will go to the ends of the Earth if it means finding their young and punishing whoever threatened or kidnapped it.
* TheDreaded: Discounting the raptors, T. rex is unquestionably among the most dangerous and frightening dinosaurs in the series, with the cast and most other dinosaurs expressing panic and dread at the very thought of having to encounter or think about the Tyrant Lizard. Its reputation is well-earned, considering ''Tyrannosaurus'' can turn out to be quite persistent and resilient in its pursuit of either prey or whatever provoked the dinosaur first.
* EverythingsBetterWithDinosaurs: InUniverse; ''Tyrannosaurus'' is often made out to be the star dinosaur in whichever theme park it is to be exhibited in. To make it that much obvious, the logos for ''Jurassic Park'' and ''Jurassic World'' have a skeletal T. rex in the middle. Video games often end up turning the dinosaur into a case of ''Everything's Better with Tyrannosaurus'' as it usually boasts among the highest ratings and popularity out of any dinosaur and can easily attract guests and attractions.
* GoodParents: T. rexes are often shown to be rather attentive and caring parents for their young, which is best shown with the tyrannosaur family in ''Film/TheLostWorldJurassicPark'' and Big Eatie and Little Eatie in ''WesternAnimation/JurassicWorldCampCretaceous''.
* KingOfTheDinosaurs: ''Tyrannosaurus'' in the series fits both ends of the trope. Its novel counterpart, as well as film versions on some occasions, display the dinosaur as a ferocious, territorial animal that asserts itself as a dominant predator that very few, namely the ''[[SavageSpinosaurs Spinosaurus]]'' and the ''[[AxCrazy Indominus]]'', can hope to threaten. On the other hand, ''Tyrannosaurus'' in the films is shown in a more regal and triumphant fashion whilst retaining its nature as a predatory beast, with Rexy being seen as a very loose [[AntiHero Anti-Heroine]] at best.
* MightyRoar: It boasts one of the most iconic in film history and has even managed to find its way into all sorts of DinosaurMedia. a T. rex's roar in the series is made out of a baby elephant's mixed with a tiger and an alligator, with the breath being taken from a whale's blow.
* LightningBruiser: ''Tyrannosaurus'' is a massive carnivorous dinosaur with what can be argued to have had the most powerful bite of any land animal that has ever existed. That, and for its size, it's quite fast and reactive.
* NonMaliciousMonster: Unlike the ''Velociraptor'' which mostly end up being seen as uber-territorial and savage murder machines, the T. rex is mainly shown to mainly mind its own business and doesn't really care about anything else. It only targets its victims if it's prey that it needs to eat or they've been provoked and are going to lash out at whoever did it.

!!Novel Canon

[[folder:Tyrannosaurus rex (Novel)]]
!!Tyrannosaurus rex ("Rexy")
A dinosaur that lived in North America during the Late Cretaceous period around 68-65 million years ago.

----

* AmbiguousSituation: Via {{retcon}} from the sequel ''Literature/TheLostWorld1995''. In original novel, Rexy's inability to see motionless objects is theorized by Grant to be the result of mutation side-effects caused by [=InGen=]'s amphibian DNA splicing to fill in the gaps. But in the sequel novel, it's mentioned that Grant proposed an alternative theory that torrential downpour can confuse a ''T. rex'' because it's not used to wet climate, which just so happens to be the weather condition during the breakout. Both theories are derided by Dr. Levine, who indirectly suggests that Rexy wasn't hungry when it encountered Grant. Suffice to say, no one knows why Grant wasn't killed that night, although Rexy is shown eating a goat in its first appearance.
* DiskOneFinalBoss: The novel makes it seem that Rexy is the [[BigBad main dinosaur antagonist of the story]], as her rampage cause devastation across the park and she's hunting down Grant and the kids. But then she succumbs to the tranquilizers shot by Muldoon before she has a chance to reach the Visitor Center and shortly after her sedation, the park's power shuts down and it's revealed that all electric fences have been off for hours. It's then the readers realize that the ''Velociraptors'', [[TheDreaded regarded to be even more dangerous]] than the ''T. rex'', are true dinosaur antagonists of the novel.
* EvilSmellsBad: Rexy's smell and habits are presented in nauseating detail. She is described as smelling like a garbage dump and her tongue stinks of urine. While asleep, she's covered in buzzing flies and lets out a disgusting belch after eating a dead hadrosaur.
* TheHeavy: Aside from the raptors, Rexy is the one who causes the most trouble for the park. She breaks into several enclosures to eat the dinosaurs living there, forcing the park staff to focus all of their attention on her (and ignoring other issues like auxiliary power), and she hunts Grant and the kids as they try to make their way back to the Visitor Center.
* InSeriesNickname: Robert Muldoon is the one who calls the adult ''T. rex'' "Rexy."
* KingOfTheDinosaurs: Rexy is the crowned attraction of the park, so much so that the park staff prioritizes on subduing the animal alive and unharmed rather than check to see if they're running on main power or if the raptors are kept in their holding pen. She spends the most of the novel as a constant threat to Grant and kids as they make their way to the visitor center through the park, stalking them from a distance before making an ambush attempt time and time again.
* LightningBruiser: Rexy is powerful enough to bring down a fully grown ''Apatosaurus'' and she can run incredibly fast, almost catching up to a gas-powered jeep.
* LivingMotionDetector: A side-effect of the amphibian DNA splicing is that Rexy's vision is based on movement. A fortunate mutation for the scared-stiff Grant when he finds himself completely exposed before the beast. However, the ''T. rex'' family on Isla Sorna can see motionless figures just fine as [[EatenAlive poor Baselton finds out]].
* NotSoHarmlessVillain: The juvenile ''rex''; while it appears less of a threat than the adult and not quite steady on its feet yet, [[spoiler:it actually succeeds at killing a human, unlike the adult]].
* OverlyLongTongue: She has one, presumably because of the frog DNA.
* RedAndBlackAndEvilAllOver: Her species's primary color here is brick red. And she follows Grant and the kids to no ends.
* ReptilesAreAbhorrent: Her reptilian qualities are really played up.
* RoarBeforeBeating: Rexy often roars at her potential prey before going for the kill, likely to make up for its motion-based vision impairment.
* ScaryTeeth: To be expected from a dinosaur with teeth like ''steak knives''.
* SheIsTheKing: Even more so than the films. While Rexy's gender in the films has been emphasized to be female, the novel often refers to Rexy as a male, which is {{lampshaded}} by John Arnold during the tour of the control room.
* StockDinosaurs: THE Stock Dinosaur.
* SuperPersistentPredator: Unlike in the movie, Rexy is clearly hunting down Grant's group for the majority of the novel, particularly when they try to reach civilization through the river system. She immediately disregards her freshly killed hadrosaur and goes after Grant and the kids in the lagoon, despite the hadrosaur carcass providing her with enough meat to keep her occupied for hours. She even waits for them at the base of the waterfall with jaws wide open, hoping for the humans to fall into her mouth. Ironically, unlike the film version, this ''rex'' fails to actually eat any humans (although it does [[spoiler:lethally injure Ian Malcolm; however, [[OnlyMostlyDead he got better]]]]); it's the juvenile ''rex'' who [[spoiler:devours Ed Regis]].
* UncertainDoom: Well, more like most definitely doomed but the circumstances are unknown. Did Rexy die from the napalm bombing at the end of the story, or did she already drowned in the pool she's in after being tranquilized by Muldoon?
* UnwittingInstigatorOfDoom: Her rampage across the park distracts the entire Jurassic Park staff from noticing that they've been running on auxiliary power the whole time, thus causing a power failure that allows [[TheDreaded the raptors]] to break free. Additionally, her hunting of Grant and the kids forces them to take the river route, which has no motion sensors to signal back to the control room.

An old ''Tyrannosaurus rex'' and the face of Jurassic World; she was one of the dinosaurs who escaped during the initial disaster at Jurassic Park and is now relocated to Jurassic World as something of a mascot. Queen of Jurassic Park and World -- a title definitely earned and ''not'' just given to her because she's very big and dangerous -- she is ''still'' capable of kicking arse, even at the age of twenty five.
----
* AccidentalHero: Rexy is a superpredator only interested in feeding or defending herself and her territory, but she has a long history of unintentionally pulling people's butts out of the fire.
** In ''Jurassic Park'', her timely attack on [[spoiler:the two surviving raptors saves Alan, Ellie, Lex, and Tim]].
** Decades later in ''Jurassic World'', she had no idea that the big predator intruding her territory was a sadistic monster, but the ''Indominus'' would have killed the heroes without her unwitting aid.
** In ''Fallen Kingdom'', she has several as her predatory instincts not only [[spoiler:save Owen from a pissed off ''Carnotaurus'']], but afterwards she knocks the gyro sphere Claire and Franklin are hiding in, sending it rolling down the hill ahead of the eruption to safety. At the end of the film, she eats [[spoiler:Mills, who is an unambiguous villain and murderer. She even gets an unknowing dig at the ''Indominus'' in, smashing the only recovered piece of its skeleton and therefore limiting what research Wu can carry out in the future]].
* ActionGirl: Because the dinosaurs in the first movie were specifically made female to prevent breeding, she qualifies.
* AdaptationalHeroism: In the novel, she could come off almost as sadistic as the ''[[Film/JurassicParkIII Spinosaurus]]'' or the ''[[Film/JurassicWorld Indominus]]'', though still more realistic. By contrast, in the films, she clearly operates on territorial and predatory instincts, culminating in her VillainousRescue moment at the end of the first film. [[spoiler:In ''Film/JurassicWorld'', she's upgraded to full anti-hero status when Claire releases her to help fight the ''Indominus rex''.]]
* AdaptationalJerkass: While still a huge threat in the novel that kills several other dinosaurs and is indirectly responsible for the death of [[spoiler:Hammond]], it doesn't actually straight-up kill anyone as opposed to the movie where she rips Gennaro in half. [[KickTheSonOfABitch Then]] [[JustDesserts again]], [[AssholeVictim Gennaro had it coming]]. And in the end, Rexy actually ignores the humans in favor of bigger and more interesting preys: two ''Velociraptor''s.
* AwesomeMomentOfCrowning: In a way, she gets one for each movie she's in:
** In one of the most iconic scenes of ''Jurassic Park'', Rexy -- [[spoiler:after throwing the Big One into the ''T. rex'' skeleton]] -- turns around and roars in triumph while the "When Dinosaurs Ruled The Earth'' banner falls down as if it's a crown bestowed upon her.
** At the end of ''Jurassic World'', where [[spoiler:she stands atop the highest heliport and roars victoriously, reclaiming her kingdom]].
* BadGuysDoTheDirtyWork: Rexy's responsible for killing the Big One and the [[spoiler:''Indominus rex'']], both battles resulting in some pretty unpleasant injuries. On the human side she ate both [[spoiler:unrepentant murderer Mills and would be big game hunter Mitch.]]. However, she's not much of a baddie since her only motivation for attacking humans is hunger or them being in her territory.
* BadassInDistress: She spends the bulk of ''Fallen Kingdom'' out of action, [[spoiler:being trapped by Wheatley and subsequently imprisoned in the Lockwood mansion, escaping only at the very end]].
* BehindTheBlack: She shows up without sound or anyone even seeing her till she snags a raptor out of midair during the climax. Both the raptors and the humans only notice her the moment the viewer does.
* BigEntrance: In ''Jurassic Park'', Rexy has one of the most famous Big Entrances in cinematic history, [[spoiler:preceded by impact tremors and culminating in everyone present looking on in horror as she effortlessly breaks free. In ''Jurassic World'', her entrance is equally epic but tonally distinct. As a combination of ominous drums and an increasingly heroic overture play, her paddock door opens and she strides out of the darkness. The whole scene balances the sense that this animal is as dangerous as the ''Indominus'' yet is still presented in the film under an heroic light.]]
* BreakoutCharacter: In a sense. She was always intended to be a big part of the film but once the raptors were introduced she originally disappeared from the rest of the film. When searching for an ending, Spielberg supposedly realised that Rexy was the true star of the flick, and had her endgame rescue added in. She went on to be the most recurring dinosaur in the franchise, appearing in numerous non-canon comics and video games, before returning to the films with the World movies.
* TheBusCameBack: There were several other ''T. rex'' specimens who appeared in ''Film/TheLostWorldJurassicPark'' and ''Film/JurassicParkIII'', but the ''T. rex'' in ''Film/JurassicWorld'' is this original ''T. rex'' who is being featured after a 22 year absence.
* CatSmile: Not very obvious, but she does appear to have this (albeit a toothy one) when seen in the front, as do the other ''Tyrannosaurus'' in the films.
* ClifftopCaterwauling: At the end of ''Film/JurassicWorld''. It's exactly as awesome as it sounds, and the triumphant music that plays during the scene makes it even more awesome.
* CombatAndSupport: In her team-up with [[spoiler:Blue, Rexy acts as the Combat by dealing hard blows on the ''I. rex'' while Blue distracts it from fighting properly]].
* CompositeCharacter: There were two ''Tyrannosaurus rex'' in the book, an adult and a juvenile. While Rexy is primary based on the adult ''T. rex'', she also fulfills the juvenile's role of eating the assigned caretaker who abandons Hammond's kids during the breakout. Interestingly, ''Film/JurassicWorld''[='=]s [[AllThereInTheManual website]] mentions that the old ''T. rex'' paddock was intended to house both an adult ''T. rex'' and a juvenile one.
* CoveredInScars: Over her thirty years, Rexy has been in the wars once or twice. There are the injuries on the left side of her back, neck and jaw gained from The Big One in ''Jurassic Park''. She's also got a large number of small scars around her nose and eyes likely gained from living in the wild and several big cuts along her right side and her legs, corresponding to some of her ''Indominus'' wounds.
* DecoyAntagonist: She serves as the main threat of Jurassic Park initially and her rampage across the park puts everyone at risk. But when the raptor fences start to fail, the Big One and her pack become the bigger and more dangerous threat to the park while Rexy [[spoiler:ironically becomes the unintentional hero at end.]]
* TheDreaded: She inspires a nervous silence in the control room even before she breaks out. Once she does, everyone on the island soon decides to nope the hell out of there the minute she shows them she ''really'' means business. This saves their lives. [[spoiler:The Big One, who, for some reason, decides to ''not run away from the very large and very dangerous dinosaur'', dies at her hands -- well, teeth, anyway.]] [[spoiler:Later, during the events of ''Camp Cretaceous'', she's very much at the top of the food chain on post-abandonment Isla Nublar, so much so that a mixed species herd of dinosaurs which had been stampeding in one direction promptly turn around the other way the moment they see her.]]
* FirstBlood: [[spoiler:In the fight against the ''Indominus'']], Rexy draws first blood.
* FoeTossingCharge: After getting a second wind in her fight against the ''I. rex'', [[spoiler:Rexy hurls it against the fence around [[AlwaysABiggerFish the Mosasaurus' lagoon]]]].
* HairTriggerTemper: Her Aggression Index is listed as "High". The former statement is ''not'' an understatement [[spoiler:and comes in very handy in Jurassic World in the fight against the ''Indominus rex''.]]
* TheHeavy: She's the most recurring dinosaur and the first one to attack the protagonists, splitting them up, but she's DemotedToExtra in favor of the raptors. [[spoiler:She ironically helps save the protagonists in the end by killing the raptors attacking them.]]
* HeroicSecondWind: [[spoiler:She takes a severe beating in the opening blows of the fight with the ''Indominus rex'' (getting body slammed, savagely mauled on her flanks, and thrown head first into a souvenir booth). Blue's intervention not only saves her life, but when Rexy re-enters the fight she's slamming the ''Indominus'' through buildings and throwing it like a ragdoll.]]
* HistoricalBadassUpgrade: ZigZagged. Rexy has [[LivingMotionDetector vision problems]] in the first film unlike the real deal and scientific studies since the movie's release suggested the real-life ''T. rex'' was just as tough if not tougher than Rexy when it comes to combat. However, Rexy has two key advantages over her real-life counterpart: 1) She can live significantly beyond the lifespan of a real ''T. rex'' thanks to modern healthcare provided by her caretakers and 2) She can run up to 32 MPH while the real animal is generally believed to have been only capable of about 12 MPH.
* TheJuggernaut: Once she gets going, she is relentless and completely unstoppable, smashing through any obstacle that gets in her way, whether it be a tree while chasing a Jeep, or a Spinosaurus skeleton while pursuing Claire.
* KickTheSonOfABitch: [[spoiler:In all of the films she's in, she is responsible for the death of a sociopathic monster that is threatening our heroes in that respective film, be it the Big One, the ''Indominus rex'', or Mills. And in the case of ''WesternAnimation/JurassicWorldCampCretaceous'', Mitch]]
* KingOfTheDinosaurs: She is probably the most iconic member of her species ever to be shown on the silver screen, and she's portrayed as the most powerful dinosaur in the entire park. Although mostly antagonistic and a terrifying man-eating predator, she also gets to be [[AlwaysABiggerFish the bigger fish]], unwittingly rescuing the human heroes from other predators.
* LastOfHerKind: Born in 1988, oldest among seven tyrannosaurs, Rexy has out lived all of her "siblings" and any of the animals born on Isla Sorna after she was moved to the park (as Masrani's illegal clones, particularly the ''Spinosaurus'', had a severe impact on the island's ecosystem with all survivors eventually shipped to Nublar). While the the genetics team still had access to the tyrannosaur genome, no other rexes were created; thus, she is -- as far as we know -- the last of her species on earth.
* LightningBruiser: Hammond clocked her at 32 miles per hour. She's also very big... and apparently resilient to trees. [[spoiler:In ''Jurassic World'', she is incredibly fast and vicious for a ''rex'' of her age and size.]]
* LivingMotionDetector: Dr. Grant once touted a scientific theory that the vision of a ''T. rex'' is based on movement, and Rexy seems to prove that theory when she fails to find the motionless Grant and Lex. But since this theory has been the subject of ridicule in real life, Rexy's vision problems have been quietly dropped since her return in ''Jurassic World''.
* MadeOfIron: [[spoiler:Even though Rexy took a rather savage beating from the ''Indominus'' at the beginning of their throwdown in the climax, once she got a [[HeroicSecondWind moment to recover]], she was unhindered and, if anything, just seemed more pissed off by her injuries than anything else. Likewise, the final scene of ''Jurassic World'' shows Rexy to be in excellent shape in spite of her age and injuries from the ''Indominus'']].
* {{Mascot}}: The face of Jurassic World. In fact, when Dr. Wu talks about the motivation for engineering the ''I. rex'', he says that the park "needed a new ''T. rex''."
* MightyRoar: She unleashes one of the most [[SignatureRoar well-known]] (and [[StockSoundEffects most used]]) in cinema. [[spoiler:Twice, as of ''Jurassic World''.]]
* NeverMessWithGranny: Almost three decades old by ''Jurassic World'' and the oldest living dinosaur known to exist. An elder by ''T. rex'' standards (the longest lived ''T. rex'' found was 28), Rexy's a bit more gaunt and scarred, she's missing a few teeth and her walk noticeably stiffer. In ''Fallen Kingdom'', it's even shown that her roar, while still sonorous, isn't quite what it used to be. [[spoiler:But she still puts up a better fight against the ''Indominus'' than any other opponent and plays a major role in finally defeating it. Interestingly, Zia noted that through a combination of a life half lived in captivity and the cloning process, it's likely that Rexy will probably live beyond a natural lifespan.]]
* NiceJobFixingItVillain: She's not technically a villain -- she hunts only when she ''needs'' to -- but she noms the raptors in the first film. In that situation, nomming the raptors is a ''good'' thing. [[spoiler:Also, contributing to the demise of the ''Indominus rex''. This is a good thing, a ''very'' good thing.]]
* NonMaliciousMonster: Although Rexy breaking out is what kicks off the start of the disaster in the first film, ultimately she's just a predatory and territorial animal rather than a true villain. [[spoiler:In fact, near the end she saves Alan and the rest when she attacks and kills the ''Velociraptors'' that were about to attack them]]. Even in ''Fallen Kingdom'', when she and Owen wind up trapped in a container, her reactions are her understandably freaking out rather than trying to eat him.
* RetiredBadass: By ''Film/JurassicWorld'', Rexy is already past her prime and seems content with a semi-domesticated life. On a meta level, Colin Trevorrow compares her appearance in the film and [[spoiler:her battle against the ''Indominus'' as her personal ''Film/{{Unforgiven}}'']].
* RightfulQueenReturns: In ''Film/JurassicWorld'', when she's called upon to help save the day.
* ScarsAreForever: The main clues that she is the same ''T. rex'' as always is the presence of scars corresponding to the raptor fight in the climax of the first movie. [[spoiler:She picks up a bucketload more following her fight with the ''Indominus'', but Rexy gave as good as she got.]]
* SheIsTheKing: ''Tyrannosaurus rex'' translates to [[AwesomeMcCoolname "Tyrant Lizard King"]]. Rexy is female.
* SignatureRoar: Her roar is impossible to mistake for anything else and [[StockSoundEffects has frequently been recycled]]. Ardent fans of the film series will be able to recognize the sounds of the other dinosaurs just as well; some of the notable ones are ''[[GentleGiant Brachiosaurus]]'' and ''[[RaptorAttack Velociraptor]]''. Interestingly, the iconic high-pitched, almost pinched sound in Rexy's roar was provided by a baby elephant's first attempts at trumpeting. The rest of it was built out of a lion, a tiger and an alligator.
* SparedByTheAdaptation: [[spoiler:In the original novel, Rexy is taken out shortly before the novel reaches its DarkestHour, succumbing to the tranquilizers that Muldoon fired upon her two hours ago. She is never seen or mentioned again after she passed out and, according to Wu and later the population count, most likely drowned in the pool she was in. [[MakeSureHesDead The Costa Rica napalm bombings made double assurance of her demise]]. In the movie, none of these two events occurred, which allows Rexy to reach the Visitor Center in time to rescue the protagonists from the raptors and later allows the Masrani Global Corporation to move her in a new exhibit enclosure in ''Jurassic World'' where 22 years later, she would be released to fight the ''Indominus rex''.]]
* StealthyColossus: The ''T. rex'', whose presence throughout the movie has been indicated by earth-shattering footsteps, manages to get into the Visitor Center without anyone noticing, before attacking the raptors. In ''Fallen Kingdom'', she is shown to ambush her prey without warning, best demonstrated with [[spoiler:[[BigBad Mills]] at the climax of the film]].
* StockDinosaurs: Rexy isn't just A Stock Dinosaur. She is THE Stock Dinosaur.
* SuperStrength: Even for a dinosaur her size, Rexy is monstrously strong. During the fight with the ''Indominus'' she twice demonstrates this, first by grabbing a 10 tonne animal in her jaws and physically hurling several dozen feet and then following up by tossing it a similar distance using her head. Her being able to topple the ''Indominus'' is one thing but she's essentially able to lift her own entire body weight plus change and hurl it through the air.
* TheToothHurts: When she attacked Lex and Timmy's explorer, she struck the roof with such force that she snapped one of her front teeth off. This gives her a prominent diastema which serves as one of her distinguishing traits.
* UnstoppableRage: [[spoiler:She's already furious when she sees the ''I. rex'' intruding on her territory. But after receiving a savage beating and Blue giving her a HeroicSecondWind, she goes full-on berserk and gives the ''I. rex'' an ''even more intense'' beatdown.]]
* VictoriousRoar: After defeating the [[spoiler:''Indominus'']], the ''Big One'', and the ''Carnotaurus'' across all of her film appearances thus far, she always lets off one of her [[SignatureRoar famous roars.]]
* TheWorfEffect:
** Briefly, in ''World''; [[spoiler:the ''I. rex'' puts down a massive beating on the old girl when they initially face off. Justified since the ''I. rex'' was tailor made with all of her strengths and ''more'', as well as because Rexy was initially fighting as she would in a territoral fight, whereas the ''I. rex'' was fighting to kill from the start; it takes an assist from Raptor Blue to give her a second wind]].
** She's on the giving end in ''Fallen Kingdom''. As the ''Carnotaurus'' is menacing our heroes, Rexy comes out of nowhere, grabs it by the neck and pins it to the ground. The real icing on the cake is that she doesn't deliver the final blow with her infamous jaws, she kills the carnotaurus by simply lifting a foot to walk away, leaving all of her considerable tonnage on the poor animal's neck.
* WorthyOpponent: She appears to regard Blue as this, as she shares a look with her after [[spoiler:they've defeated ''Indominus'']] and they peacefully go their separate ways.
* VocalEvolution: Her roar in ''Fallen Kingdom'' sounds deeper, more guttural and more bellow-like to show her old age.

-->--'''Roland Tembo'''

A [[ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin family of]] ''[[ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin T. rexes]]'', consisting of a father, a mother, and a baby.
----
* AscendedExtra: Of a sort. While the ''T. rex'' in the first film was a major presence, the ''Tyrannosaurus'' family in this film is the driving force of many of its events and fills the ''Velociraptors'' roles as the primary dinosaur antagonists.
* BadassAdorable: The baby.
* BadassFamily: They're a family of ''Tyrannosaurus rexes'', after all.
* BattleCouple: Together, they are easily the most formidable creatures on the island.
* TheComicallySerious: The adults are more serious antagonists than Rexy. Which makes all the more shocking when the buck has silly moments like drinking out of a pool.
* ContrastingSequelAntagonist: Most obviously by being a family and having a distinct reason to continue pursuing the characters, both of which contrast Rexy in the first film.
* CubCuesProtectiveParent: See the baby? Don't touch it unless you ''want'' to become ''T. rex'' chow.
* DarkerAndEdgier: The parents are downright scarier than Rexy. They sound angrier as they are, they wouldn't leave the humans alone, and they caused more deaths than Rexy did.
* TheDreaded: Two angry parent ''T. rexes'' are the kind to seriously watch out for, especially due to their tracking skills and if someone tries to steal their baby.
* EscapedAnimalRampage: In the final climax, the male gets loose from its holding cell on the cargo ship and, hopped up on stimulants, goes on a destructive rampage through San Diego.
* TheFamilyThatSlaysTogether: To the point where we see the father teaching his son how to hunt.
* GoodParents: Part of Sarah's dispute with Burke is their opinions on ''Tyrannosaurus'' nurturing habits. Burke's is that a ''T. rex'' would abandon its young at the earliest opportunity. Sarah's is that they were very involved in the development of their offspring. Over the course of this film, Sarah is proven right, as not only are both parents ''[[MamaBear pis]][[PapaWolf sed]]'' when their baby is taken but the father is even shown teaching the infant how to make a kill. [[spoiler:Said kill being Ludlow]].
* HandicappedBadass: The baby after he's injured.
* KilledOffscreen: Since Rexy is confirmed as being the last ''Tyrannosaurus'' left by the time of ''Film/JurassicWorldFallenKingdom'', it can safely be assumed these three are dead.
* KingOfTheDinosaurs: Roland Tembo's entire motive is to hunt what he deems to be the greatest predator that has ever walked the earth, the ''Tyrannosaurus rex''. Specifically, the Buck.
* LightningBruiser: They are huge, strong, and very fast. The buck can plow through a wall without even slowing down.
* MamaBear[=/=]PapaWolf: The parents. If you mess with their baby, they will track you across the island to eliminate you as a threat. The moment the father, already amped up thanks to the stimulant cocktail it was given on the ship, sees Ian and Sarah have its offspring in their car, it instantly stops rampaging in San Diego and gives chase, roaring in rage.
* NonMaliciousMonster: The parents just want to save their baby. All three of them want food.
* TheNoseKnows: The father sniffs out some of the humans at some points. He's also shown catching a whiff of his nearby infant when Ian and Sarah attempt to lure him away amidst his San Diego rampage. This ends up being one of the reasons the Buck and Doe continue to follow the humans around the island, due to Sarah idiotically still wearing a jacket stained with the blood of their injured infant.
* NoSell: When attacking the hunters, they are shot at with automatic weapons. The guns aren't powerful to do any damage, the rexes don't even react to them.
* SequelEscalation: The first film had one ''T. rex'', which was enough trouble for the humans, but now there are ''two'' of them (plus a baby).
* SoProudOfYou: [[spoiler:The father certainly appears to feel this way after his son kills Ludlow]]. He even seems to be ''smiling''.
* {{Super Persistent Predator}}s: Even after their baby has been given back to them, the parents don't go away and keep chasing the humans. Perhaps they found Eddie very tasty and want more...
** In fairness, it's stated that the ''rexes'' still see the remaining humans as intruders upon their established territory and that the kidnapping of their infant caused them to extend that territory wider. Plus, the infant's blood on Sarah's jacket ends up attracting them due to their strong sense of smell.
* SuperToughness: Displayed more so than Rexy in the first movie, the adults are '''tough'''. The Buck, while wreaking havoc in San Diego, rams his head into a bus and smashes it without getting a scratch on him.
* TrampledUnderfoot: The Doe squishes Carter underneath her foot in a puddle, whose body does not come off until after her third step.
* WorthyOpponent: Roland Tembo sees the Buck ''rex'' as this.
--> '''Roland:''' Somewhere on this island is the greatest predator who ever lived. The second greatest predator must take him down.

[[caption-width-right:250:[[PunctuatedForEmphasis "Nobody. Move. A muscle."]]]]

An adult male ''Tyrannosaurus rex'' that Grant and company run into while escaping the plane crash. It proceeds to chase them, only to run into the ''Spinosaurus'' and get into a fight with the larger predator. It puts up a good fight, but ends up killed.
----
* CurbStompCushion: Despite only lasting about a half-minute against the ''Spinosaurus'', it still manages to get the first takedown and multiple hits in to make the ''Spinosaurus'' work for its win.
* DemotedToExtra: After the ''T.rex'' being the star of the franchise for two films, this one exists essentially to be killed and replaced by the ''Spinosaurus'', to show how deadly the new dino is.
* KingOfTheDinosaurs: Subverted hard. Normally, a ''T. rex'' in a ''Jurassic Park'' film would be the top predator of the island feared by all. But to highlight how badass the ''[[SavageSpinosaurs Spinosaurus]]'' is to the audience, [[TheWorfEffect it gets dethroned very violently and quickly]] by its new superpredator rival.
* NeckSnap: How the ''Spinosaurus'' kills it.
* StockDinosaurs: Arguably ''the'' stock dinosaur. Here, though, it's killed by a ''Spinosaurus'', paving the way for the ''Spino'' to become a [[StockDinosaurs Stock Dinosaur]] in its own right.
* SuperPersistentPredator: Despite having a whole carcass in front of it, the ''rex'' decides that chasing and attacking the humans that stumble upon it is a much more interesting thing to do. This causes its death as while chasing them they blunder into the ''Spinosaurus''. Could be ''partially'' HandWaved assuming it mistook the humans for scavengers, but even then it should've stopped chasing them long before it actually did.
* TheWorfEffect: An infamous example, the ''Tyrannosaurus'' is the face of the franchise and the filmmakers wanted a dinosaur that could replace it. So, the ''Tyrannosaurus'' of this film encounters and fights the ''Spinosaurus'' and despite landing several blows that would have killed or crippled it in a potential real life scenario, the ''Spinosaurus'' wins the struggle and kills its opponent.
* WriterOnBoard: Its treatment in this movie is largely a result of scientific advisor Jack Horner's influence. Horner believed that ''T. rex'' didn't "deserve" to be the face of the franchise, and suggested that it be "replaced" with a more suitable dinosaur. Consequently, it is killed off in its only brief appearance. It doesn't even kill ''anything'' in this movie, only being shown scavenging on an already dead dinosaur-- no doubt a reference to Horner's theory that ''T. rex'' was a scavenger.

* GoofyFeatheredDinosaur: Blatantly averted. The feathers on it are subdued, but not at all hidden; and it's made clear that this is just as much a bonafide apex predator as the [=InGen=] stock we had seen.
* KingOfTheDinosaurs: Unusually for the franchise, [[SubvertedTrope subverted]]. While this ''Tyrannosaurus'' is definitely a fearsome and formidable carnivore just like the real animal [[spoiler:and its "descendant" Rexy]], it's clear that in its natural environment it's just another predator which (as its battle with the ''Giganotosaurus'' shows) is far from invulnerable and has rival predators to contend with.
* LegacyCharacter: [[spoiler:''Strongly'' implied to be the ''T. rex'' that contributed the majority of Rexy/Roberta's DNA]].
* ShownTheirWork: This ''Tyrannosaurus'' isn't entirely scaly like the [=InGen=] version, as the genus was very firmly nested within a group known to have feathers. Since the fossil record has nevertheless demonstrated that ''Tyrannosaurus'' was predominantly scaly, the film's depiction has only a sparse coat of filaments along its neck, arms, and dorsum as opposed to the ''Yutyrannus''-like full-body covering seen in some obsolete reconstructions. It also lacks pronated hands.

A mother and daughter duo of ''Tyrannosaurus''.
----
* ArtisticLicenseBiology: Big Eatie should probably be more naturally aggressive to her daughter by this point, as large predators tend to kick their young out once they reach adulthood to avoid competition for scarce food.
* ArtisticLicensePaleontology: {{Handwave}}d by the cloning process (which accelerates aging), but fossils indicate that ''Tyrannosaurus'' had an aging period equivalent to humans (start out small and grow gradually, puberty starts at 13, adulthood reached at about 18 years) and lived only to their thirties, so Big Eatie should have died of old age long before her daughter reached adulthood.
* MamaBear: Big Eatie is both a loving and a protective mother to Little Eatie.
* MythologyGag: The original novel featured a pair of Tyrannosaurus, an adult and a juvenile, as one of the threats the heroes face. Here another pair, this time explicitly mother and daughter, also menaces the heroes.
* ThereIsAnother: The existence of Big Eatie and Little Eatie confirms that Rexy is not the last of her kind.
* WhatHappenedToTheMouse: They disappear about halfway through the storyline of season 4 (Little Eatie lying badly injured in the jungle and Big Eatie having been taken to the medbay after her fight with Pierce) and aren't mentioned again since. It's likely that they will return in Season 5 though.
