Dinosaurs have returned to dominate the box office once again. Jurassic World: Rebirth (2025), directed by Gareth Edwards and written by David Koepp, has roared past expectations with a colossal $811 million worldwide gross as of August 15, 2025. Despite mixed reviews from critics, the film has become a global box office success and reaffirmed the enduring power of the Jurassic Park franchise.

In this article, we’ll take a deep dive into the box office collections of Jurassic World: Rebirth, its domestic and international performance, opening weekend numbers, and what this means for the future of the franchise.

Jurassic World: Rebirth – Overview

Released in the United States and Canada on July 2, 2025, Jurassic World: Rebirth is the fourth Jurassic World film and the seventh overall installment in the Jurassic Park series. The film stars Scarlett Johansson, Mahershala Ali, Jonathan Bailey, Rupert Friend, Manuel Garcia-Rulfo, and Ed Skrein in leading roles.

The story picks up three years after Jurassic World Dominion (2022), with dinosaurs forced to survive near the equator due to climate collapse. A pharmaceutical company organizes a dangerous expedition to retrieve dinosaur biomaterial that may hold the cure to heart disease. What follows is a thrilling adventure across an abandoned island research facility, filled with giant predators, mutated species, and deadly encounters.

Filmed across Thailand, Malta, and the United Kingdom, the movie blends adventure, sci-fi, and survival thriller elements, while also paying homage to Spielberg’s original 1993 classic.

Box Office Performance

As of August 15, 2025, Jurassic World: Rebirth has collected:

• Domestic (U.S. & Canada): $330 million

• International: $481 million

• Worldwide Total: $886.2 million

This makes it the fourth-highest-grossing film of 2025, securing a strong position in a competitive year filled with superhero films, sci-fi spectacles, and franchise sequels.

Opening Weekend Collections

The film’s debut was nothing short of spectacular. Released during the Fourth of July holiday frame, the movie benefited from extended weekend business.

• Opening Day (July 2, 2025): $30.5 million

• July 3: $25.3 million

• July 4 (Independence Day): $26.3 million

• July 5: $35.6 million

By the end of its first five days, Rebirth grossed $147.8 million domestically, including $92 million for the standard three-day weekend. Globally, the film earned a massive $322.6 million during its opening frame.

Industry projections had placed its 5-day domestic debut at around $120–130 million, but the movie exceeded expectations thanks to strong audience turnout and family appeal.

Domestic Box Office Breakdown

With $330 million in North America, Jurassic World: Rebirth has been one of the biggest summer performers. However, like most blockbusters, it faced a sharp drop in its second weekend, falling 56.2% and earning $40.3 million—placing second behind Superman.

Still, the film has displayed solid legs, especially given the mixed critical reception. Strong word-of-mouth from franchise loyalists and the draw of Scarlett Johansson and Mahershala Ali in action-driven roles boosted repeat viewings.

International Box Office Performance

Outside of North America, Jurassic World: Rebirth has proven to be a powerhouse with $481 million collected so far.

Top International Markets:

• China: $41 million

• United Kingdom: $16.6 million

• Mexico: $13.9 million

• Germany: $7.6 million

In India, the film broke franchise records by registering the highest day-one gross without advance premieres, a strong indicator of the franchise’s growing popularity in emerging markets.

In China, the movie held onto the #1 spot in its second weekend, pulling in another $11.1 million despite competition from local releases.

Budget vs. Profit

The movie was produced on a budget estimated at $180–225 million. With $811 million in global collections (and counting), Universal Pictures has already secured strong profitability, especially when factoring in merchandise, streaming rights, and theme park tie-ins.

While it may not surpass the billion-dollar mark like 2015’s Jurassic World ($1.67 billion worldwide), Rebirth proves the franchise remains financially strong and relevant.

Critical Reception and Audience Response

On the review aggregator Rotten Tomatoes, Jurassic World: Rebirth holds a 51% approval rating, while

Metacritic scores it at 50/100, indicating mixed or average reviews.

• Positive reviews highlighted Gareth Edwards’ direction, the thrilling set pieces, and the film’s nostalgic return to Spielberg-style suspense.

• Negative reviews criticized the story as repetitive and overly reliant on franchise clichés.

Audiences, however, were more forgiving. CinemaScore gave the film a “B” grade, showing that while not a masterpiece, Rebirth was still an enjoyable summer blockbuster for fans.

Why Jurassic World: Rebirth Succeeded

Despite criticisms, several factors contributed to its box office success:

1. Nostalgia Factor – The Jurassic brand continues to attract families and fans who grew up with the franchise.

2. Star Power – Scarlett Johansson and Mahershala Ali brought credibility and global appeal.

3. Global Reach – Universal marketed the film heavily across Asia, Latin America, and Europe.

4. Holiday Release – A strategic July 4th release boosted domestic turnout.

5. Spectacle and VFX – The promise of giant dinosaurs, new hybrids like the “Distortus rex,” and IMAX screenings lured audiences seeking a big-screen experience.

Future of the Jurassic Franchise

The success of Jurassic World: Rebirth ensures that the franchise won’t be going extinct anytime soon. However, the future may look different. Many critics and fans believe the series needs a creative reboot rather than another sequel. With Edwards proving his skill in spectacle-driven storytelling, Universal may either:

• Continue with a new trilogy building on Rebirth’s storyline.

• Pivot to spin-offs or streaming series, exploring side stories in the Jurassic universe.

• Potentially take a hiatus before the next big theatrical release.

Whatever happens, dinosaurs remain one of Universal’s most bankable IPs, and the appetite for prehistoric thrills clearly isn’t extinct.

Final Verdict

Jurassic World: Rebirth may not have reinvented the wheel, but it delivered exactly what audiences expected: dinosaurs, action, and adventure on a grand scale. With $886.2 million at the global box office, it stands as one of 2025’s biggest blockbusters.

While the franchise faces creative challenges moving forward, the box office proves that dinosaurs are still cinematic gold. Three decades after Steven Spielberg’s Jurassic Park first roared onto screens, the world still loves to watch humanity run from giant predators.
