The latest Jurassic World installment, Rebirth, is stomping its way to a massive $147M+ five-day opening, fueled by a $36M+ Saturday haul. Despite swapping out characters and cast over the years, the franchise keeps defying expectations, proving dinosaurs still rule the box office. Universal’s promo campaign also flexed its muscles, spending $150M to keep the hype alive.

Editor’s Note: Hollywood loves a reliable moneymaker, and Jurassic World is basically the T-Rex of franchises—big, unstoppable, and immune to extinction (so far). This success signals that audiences still crave dino-sized spectacle, even if the scripts aren’t exactly groundbreaking. For studios, it’s a reminder: nostalgia + CGI = $$$.

The new Jurassic World: Rebirth is roaring back to life at the box office, pulling in a hefty ₹22 crore and proving the dinosaur franchise still has teeth. Evening shows are packed, especially in English 3D and Tamil screenings, and industry watchers say it’s on track to be a mid-year blockbuster. Fans seem to be loving the return to the series' roots—apparently, you can’t keep a good T. rex down.

Editor’s Note: Big franchise revivals are always a gamble, but this one’s paying off—both for studios banking on nostalgia and audiences craving a throwback thrill. Strong early numbers suggest Rebirth might breathe fresh life into the series, and in a crowded movie season, that’s no small feat. Plus, it’s a reminder that sometimes, old-school spectacle still sells.

Summer blockbusters are roaring (and revving) back to life at the box office. Jurassic World Rebirth stomped its way to a $26 million opening day, while F1 is speeding toward a $100 million global haul. Universal’s latest dino sequel flexed its franchise muscle over the holiday weekend, proving audiences still can’t resist prehistoric chaos—or high-octane racing drama.

The latest Jurassic World installment, Rebirth, has stomped its way to a massive $318.3 million global opening weekend—making it the biggest studio film debut of the year so far. While it didn’t quite dethrone the 2015 Jurassic World as the franchise’s top opener, it’s still a roaring success, especially overseas, where it dominated 82 markets.

Editor’s Note: This isn’t just another blockbuster—it’s proof that the Jurassic franchise still has serious bite. A debut this huge signals strong audience appetite for big-budget spectacles, which is great news for theaters still recovering from pandemic slumps. Plus, it sets a high bar for the summer movie season. If dinosaurs can still draw crowds like this, Hollywood’s old-school blockbuster model isn’t extinct yet.
