It is tracking to hit the $1 billion mark worldwide soon, but before that, the PG-rated live-action remake is set to become the 40th highest-grossing film at the North American box office. The movie will achieve that by surpassing the domestic haul of Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom. Scroll below for the deets.
The Disney movie has been in theaters for about forty-nine days. It has lost multiple theaters owing to the new film and is running in 2,560 locations in North America. It was directed by Dean Fleischer Camp and is based on Disney’s 2002 traditionally animated film of the same name.
