Jurassic World Rebirthhas surpassed a major Marvel Cinematic Universe movie at the box office as it continues to ascend the all-time charts. The Gareth Edwards-directed movie was released earlier this month and reboots the beloved dinosaur franchise with a new set of characters.
ThoughJurassic World Rebirthearned mixed reviews, leading to a 51% Rotten Tomatoes score, it has proven its might at the box office. After opening to a whopping $318 million globally,the blockbuster has shown some decent legs, even as it faces stiffer competition fromSupermanand other summer fare.
Now,Jurassic World Rebirthhas passed another major blockbuster on the all-time PG-13 movies chart. According toThe Numbers, the film has earned $676.6 million, whichputs it at No. 98 on the list and just squeaks it past 2016’sDoctor Strange. The MCU movie earned $676.3 million during its run.
What This Means For Jurassic World Rebirth’s Box Office
$700 Million Is In Its Sight, But It’ll Be Slowing Down Soon
With a little less than $25 million to go before it grosses $700 million worldwide,Jurassic World Rebirthis poised to cross this milestoneand head up the list even further. The movie is about to face even trickier competition this weekend with therelease of Marvel’sThe Fantastic Four: First Steps, butRebirthlikely has enough gas to rake in a few more millions.
After passingDoctor Strange, the next titles inRebirth’s sight areThe Hunger Games,Forrest Gump, andThe Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn - Part 1. However, the nextJurassicmovie on the list is 2022’sDominionwith $1.004 billion, which is still quite a ways off.
$682.2 million
$679.8 million
$677.9 million
$676.6 million
Doctor Strange
$676.3 million
Jurassic World Rebirthhas demonstratedsome admirable staying power, and its performance suggests many are viewing it just likeDoctor Strange, which is to say, it’s almost like a spinoff of a beloved franchise rather than an urgent continuation. With it now approaching the end of its first month of release,Rebirthwill likely continue to slow down in the coming weeks.
Our Take On Jurassic World Rebirth’s Box Office
Will It Hit $1 Billion?
Though its predecessors in theJurassic Worldfranchise all passed $1 billion,it’s looking less likely thatRebirthwill as well. It held up decently well againstthe release ofSuperman, but the combined power of the DC blockbuster andFantastic Four, along with the simple fact thatRebirth’s been in theaters for close to a month, signal an end to significant grosses.
Still, since it has a $180 million budget, the movie should close out its run with at least a minor profit.Jurassic World Rebirthshould clear $700 million in the coming days and beat other movies on the all-time chart;whether it has enough power to get to $800 million remains to be seen, but its post-Fantastic Fourperformance should give an indication of where it’ll end up.
