Jeff Goldblum unveiled a wild surprise for Jurassic World newcomer Scarlett Johansson.

On Monday, the Jurassic Park alum, 71, delivered a special video message to Johansson during her appearance on Today to congratulate her for being cast in the upcoming fourth installment of the Jurassic World reboot series.

Dr. Johansson, this is Jeff Goldblum. Heres what I want to say to you. This I know: Scarlett will find a way, he said, nodding to his famous line from the first film, Life will find a way.

Dont get eaten, unless you want to, he added, in a neon T. rex sweater.

Goldblum played Dr. Ian Malcolm in 1993s Jurassic Park and returned for three more movies in the franchise.

Wrapping up his message, the longtime actor blew Johansson a kiss before adding, I love you.

Johansson gushed to Todays Savannah Guthrie over the unexpected message.

Oh my gosh, I cant believe Jeff actually said that to me, she said. I mean, I think my life is complete now. I can retire now.

Goldblums welcoming words bring things full-circle for Johansson, who has long been vocal about her desire to join the massively successful sci-fi franchise.

Last month, Johansson, 39, revealed to Comicbook that she spent a decade trying to earn a role in the dinosaur flicks before finally being cast.

Ive been trying to get into this franchise in any possible way for over 10 years, Johansson explained. Im like, Ill die in the first five minutes! I can get eaten by whatever! Ill do the craft service! Ill do anything for it.
