'Jurassic World Rebirth' Dominates Box Office Over Holiday Weekend
“Jurassic World Rebirth” dominated the box office over the holiday weekend, grossing over $147 million at the domestic box office and putting it on track to earn back its reported budget—but it’s still a step down from previous installments’ opening weekends.
The stars of "Jurassic World Rebirth," Mahershala Ali, Scarlett Johansson, Jonathan Bailey and ... More Rupert Friend attend the film's New York premiere in June.
2025 Invision“Jurassic World Rebirth,” the latest in the series that began with Stephen Spielberg's 1993 blockbuster “Jurassic Park,” grossed about $147.3 million over the long Independence Day weekend, according to multiple Hollywood trade publications with advance box office figures.
The film’s debut was boosted by opening two days early for the extended holiday weekend, capturing $25.3 million at the box office on its Thursday opening night and $26.3 million on Independence Day.
“Jurassic World Rebirth” grossed an additional $171 million internationally, for a combined total of more than $318 million.
The latest installment in the historically expensive franchise had a budget of about $180 million, sources told the Hollywood Reporter, although this figure does not include marketing costs—a considerable step down from the massive $1.1 billion production the previous two films cost Universal Pictures.
“Jurassic World Rebirth” is another franchise reset for the series that began in 1993, the first in a new series of films starring Scarlett Johansson and Jonathan Bailey. Despite the strong numbers, it had the weakest opening weekend compared to the last three films released since 2015. “Jurassic World Rebirth” only made about $91.5 million in domestic box office sales from Friday through Sunday without the early holiday release days, Variety reported. “Jurassic World,” the 2015 franchise reset and first installment in 14 years, posted a $208.8 million opening weekend, and its two sequels, “Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom” (2018) and “Jurassic World Dominion” (2022), grossed $148 million and $145 million, respectively.
All three of the latest “Jurassic Park” installments have grossed over $1 billion overall. With a weaker domestic opening, it’s unclear whether “Jurassic World Rebirth” will meet this same milestone. However, the franchise clearly remains popular around the globe, and international box office sales boosted each previous installment. International box office sales accounted for more than $1 billion of “Jurassic World” (2015)’s box office revenue.
