‘Dune: Part Two’ Will Dust Off The Box Office With $170M Global Debut – Preview
'Dune: Part Two' to see $170M global box office opening.
Unless you’ve been living under a rock, Legendary Entertainment and Warner Bros.’ Dune: Part Two opens this weekend in what’s a much-needed jolt of testosterone for the box office that’s been winded by the dual strikes’ delay of titles.
