Jurassic World Rebirth Roars Loud With $312.5 Million Global Opening
Dinosaurs are back in business and roaring louder than ever. Jurassic World Rebirth, the latest chapter in the iconic franchise, has stomped its way to a gigantic $312.5 million global opening weekend, far exceeding its projected $260 million. Directed by Gareth Edwards, the film is already shaping up to be one of the biggest cinematic events of 2025.
According to Deadline, this is the second-highest global debut of the year, just behind A Minecraft Movie. Rebirth now also holds the title of second-largest opening in Jurassic history, trailing only behind 2015's Jurassic World which launched with $525 million.
Starring Jonathan Bailey, Scarlett Johansson, and Mahershala Ali, the film has been met with solid word-of-mouth and impressive turnout across international markets. Overseas alone, Rebirth pulled in $171.3 million, making it the year's second-biggest international debut after Ne Zha 2.
China emerged as the top-performing international territory, bringing in $33.7 million and commanding 50 per cent of the local market. The UK and Ireland followed with a strong $7.5 million total, doubling the performance of F1: The Movie. India added $1.3 million to the pot, placing it as the second-best MPA opening in the country this year, behind Mission: Impossible – Final Reckoning.
Other regions also turned out in big numbers: South Korea hit $5.1 million after a $2.4 million Saturday, France opened at $1.8 million, and Mexico collected $6.5 million, including $2.2 million on Friday alone.
Markets like Thailand (with a whopping 76 per cent market share), Poland (42 per cent), and the UAE (40 per cent) also saw Rebirth dominate local screens. The film claimed the No. 1 spot in nearly every major territory including Australia, Spain, Germany, and Italy.
Interestingly, in Taiwan, the film has already outgrossed the entire lifetime box office of Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny.
Thanks to Gareth Edwards' direction, dazzling visuals, and a revived sense of adventure, Jurassic World Rebirth is not just living up to its franchise legacy, it's charging ahead of it.

'Jurassic World Rebirth' takes a bite out of Fourth of July weekend with $318 million global haul
Dinosaur fatigue may be a theme in "Jurassic World Rebirth," but moviegoing audiences don't seem to have that reservation. The newest installment in the "Jurassic World" franchise ruled the Fourth of July holiday box office with a global, five-day launch of $318.3 million, according to studio estimates Sunday. The Universal Pictures release, directed by Gareth Edwards, opened on Wednesday and earned $147.3 million in its first five days in 4,308 North American theatres. An estimated $91.5 million of that comes from the traditional "three day" weekend, which includes the Friday holiday, Saturday and projected Sunday ticket sales. Internationally, it opened in 82 markets including China, adding $171 million to the opening total. According to the studio, $41.5 million of that came from China alone, where it played on 65,000 screens, 760 of which were IMAX. It's the country's biggest MPA (Motion Picture Association) opening of the year. "Jurassic World" was missing from IMAX screens domestically (due to a commitment to continue showing "F1"), but it thrived on the premium large format screens where it played. One of those options was Dolby Cinema, where it made nearly $8 million from only 167 screens in five days. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like ดัชนีทั่วโลกกำลังคึกคัก ถึงเวลาเทรดแล้ว! IC Markets อ่านเพิ่มเติม Undo "Rebirth," starring Scarlett Johansson , Mahershala Ali and Jonathan Bailey , is the fourth movie in the "Jurassic World" series and the seventh since Steven Spielberg 's original Michael Crichton adaptation stormed theatres in the summer of 1993. The new film received mixed reviews from critics, carrying a 51% on Rotten Tomatoes, and B CinemaScore from opening weekend audiences. The studio was struck by the broad audience turnout, from ages eight to 80, and the fact that the film exceeded estimates at every step despite the reviews. Factors like the holiday weekend, inflation and post-COVID moviegoing realities make it difficult to fairly compare the "Rebirth" launch to the other films in the "Jurassic World" franchise, the first of which opened to $208 million domestically in 2015. The other two, "Fallen Kingdom" and "Dominion" opened to $148 million and $145 million respectively. "Jurassic World Rebirth" introduced a new main cast to the series and brought back a familiar voice in "Jurassic Park" screenwriter David Koepp to guide the story about a dangerous hunt for dinosaur DNA (not for making dinosaurs this time, but for curing heart disease). It cost a reported $180 million net to produce, not including marketing and promotion costs. The campaign was far reaching, including a global press tour, with stops everywhere from London to Seoul, integrated marketing across NBC Universal platforms and brand tie-ins with everything from Jeep and 7-11 to Johansson's skincare line. No major new films dared go up against the dinosaurs, who left last week's champion, the Brad Pitt racing movie "F1," in the dust. "F1" fell a modest 54% in its second weekend with $26.1 million, helping bring its domestic total to $109.5 million. It continues to play on IMAX screens with accounted for $7.6 million of the North American weekend ticket sales. Globally, it's nearing $300 million with a running total of $293.6 million. Third place went to Universal's live-action "How to Train Your Dragon," which earned $11 million in its fourth weekend, bringing its domestic total to $224 million. Disney and Pixar's "Elio" landed in fourth place with $5.7 million. Globally, "Elio" has just crossed $96 million in three weekends. "28 Years Later" rounded out the top five with $4.6 million. A 41-year-old movie also made the domestic top 10: The re-release of Rob Reiner's 1984 film "This is Spinal Tap." Having the Fourth of July land on a Friday could have negatively impacted the overall box office, but the holiday didn't blow up the weekend's earnings. And there's still some major movies to come in the packed summer movie calendar, including "Superman," which opens later this week. Top 10 movies by domestic box office With final domestic figures being released Monday, this list factors in the estimated ticket sales for Friday through Sunday at U.S. and Canadian theatres, according to Comscore: 1. "Jurassic World Rebirth," $91.5 million. 2. "F1 The Movie," $26.1 million. 3. "How to Train Your Dragon," $11 million. 4. "Elio," $5.7 million. 5. "28 Years Later," $4.6 million. 6. "Lilo & Stitch," $3.8 million. 7. "M3GAN 2.0," $3.8 million. 8. "Mission: Impossible - The Final Reckoning," $2.7 million. 9. "Materialists," $1.3 million. 10.

Box Office: Jurassic World: Rebirth hits the bullseye in India; Scarlett Johansson led dinosaur saga collects Rs 35.25 crore in 3 days
The Scarlett Johansson led Jurassic World: Rebirth has scored very good results at the box office in its opening weekend, as the dinosaur saga has collected Rs 35.25 crore in 3 days in India. The action adventure opened at Rs 8.25 crore on Friday, followed by a jump to Rs 12.50 crore on Saturday, and another spike to Rs 14.50 crore on Sunday. One must note that, the collections reported are not including 3D charges, and if they are also accounted for, the weekend total will fall in the range of Rs 38.75 crore. The film has fared well all across the board – be it the multiplexes or the single screens – and is headed to emerge a clean hit at the Indian box office. These numbers have come despite a no-release on IMAX, and heavy competition in India from films like F1, Metro In Dino, and Sitaare Zameen Par among others. The competition had also hit the showcasing of Jurassic World in India, but the film saw a spike in showcasing over the weekend based on public demand. Jurassic World would be looking to hold around the Rs 5 crore mark on Monday, and from there aim at a first week in the North of Rs 50 crore. There will be a surge in business again over the second weekend, and it is headed for a rather healthy theatrical run in India. The last Jurassic World film had collected around the Rs 60 crore mark in India, and the latest installment will zoom past the number with ease. The Scarlett Johansson film will join Final Destination: Bloodlines, Mission Impossible 8 and F1 as the successes from Hollywood in India this year. Jurassic World: Rebirth Day Wise Box Office Collections Friday: Rs 8.25 crore Saturday: Rs 12.50 crore Sunday: Rs 14.50 crore Total: Rs 35.25 crore Stay tuned to Pinkvilla for more updates! Note: The above numbers are reported excluding 3D charges to align with the reporting standards of other films. It needs to be said that including 3D charges is actually the correct way to report and in future, all films could be corrected by including those charges but for now, these charges are excluded.
