Jurassic World Rebirth crossed major box office milestones as it nears a month in theaters worldwide. Universal had pushed the project into pre-production even before selecting a director, determined to maintain tighter creative control after Jurassic World Dominion, which drew poor reviews despite passing $1 billion globally.
The decision now appears to have paid off, as Rebirth continues to climb, recently overtaking a Tim Burton blockbuster at the domestic box office.
Jurassic World Rebirth Surpasses Tim Burton’s Beetlejuice Beetlejuice
The film has earned over $300 million domestically (per Box Office Mojo), moving past the $294 million lifetime domestic total of Burton’s Beetlejuice Beetlejuice. That movie had been a surprise hit, collecting more than $450 million worldwide and becoming Burton’s biggest success since Alice in Wonderland ($1B) in 2010.
