Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom crosses $400 million domestically
Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom has proven to be a massive box office hit not just from a worldwide standpoint, but also domestically as it is crossing $400 million in it’s 41st day of release. It becomes the 15th fastest film to hit $400 million all-time.
By crossing $400 million domestically it becomes the 3rd film in the Jurassic franchise along with Jurassic Park ($402.5 million) and Jurassic World ($652.3 million) to hit this mark unadjusted for inflation. Though Jurassic Park crossed $400 million with the help of the 2013 3D re-release.
By the end of this upcoming weekend Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom will pass Jurassic Park unadjusted to become the second highest grossing film domestically in the series. It is also currently the second highest grossing worldwide film in the series, having amassed more than $1.24 billion as of today.
Once it passes $403 million, it’ll be Universal/Comcast Corp.’s third-biggest (unadjusted) domestic grosser, behind E.T.: The Extra-Terrestrial ($434m counting the 2002 reissue) and Colin Trevorrow’s Jurassic World ($652m in 2015). And if it passes the $413m gross of Wonder Woman (which seems likely), it’ll have the biggest domestic gross for any non-Disney release since The Hunger Games: Catching Fire ($424m) in late 2013. With $1.237 billion worldwide, it is already the biggest non-Disney release since Jurassic World ($1.672b) in the summer of 2015.
While Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom has earned less than Jurassic World did in 2015, the numbers it has done are massive for any film. Let us know your thoughts in the comments below and on our forums.
