28 Years Later: The Bone Temple Box Office: Nears The Worldwide Total Of Paul Thomas Anderson’s Oscar-Nominated Tom Cruise Drama

With an impressive 92% critics’ score on Rotten Tomatoes, 28 Years Later: The Bone Temple currently boasts the highest critical reception in the 28 Days Later franchise. However, its box office performance tells a different story. With a worldwide total of $47 million so far, the film trails behind the global grosses of 28 Days Later ($74.9 million), 28 Weeks Later ($72.3 million), and 28 Years Later ($151.3 million). While the Nia DaCosta-directed sequel still has a chance to overtake the first two entries, surpassing the third installment now appears unlikely.

Despite its theatrical underperformance relative to its predecessor, The Bone Temple is currently the highest-grossing release of 2026, staying ahead of titles such as Primate ($31.1 million) and Greenland 2: Migration ($23.4 million), as per Box Office Mojo. As its theatrical run continues, the film is also closing in on the worldwide total of Paul Thomas Anderson’s Oscar-nominated drama Magnolia, starring Tom Cruise, Philip Seymour Hoffman, and Julianne Moore. Here’s a look at how much more 28 Years Later: The Bone Temple needs to earn to surpass Magnolia at the global box office.
