Box Office: ‘Jurassic World Rebirth’ Opens to Mighty $30.5 Million on Wednesday


Universal's 'Jurassic World Rebirth' opened to $30.5 million on Wednesday as it looks to dominate the July 4th holiday box office.

“ Jurassic World Rebirth,” the seventh installment in the long-running dinosaur franchise that refuses to go extinct, took a big bite out of the box office on Wednesday, earning $30.5 million. Critics were kinder to “Rebirth,” which finds Scarlett Johansson, Jonathan Bailey and Mahershala Ali trying to avoid the jaws of some prehistoric beasts, than they were to “Dominion,” crediting the film with delivering more scares than its predecessor. That’s still a fraction of what “Jurassic World Rebirth” will earn, but it’s worth remembering that with a $3 trillion market cap, Apple doesn’t face the same financial pressures of a traditional studio.
