The Christopher Nolan movie is tracking to end its run below the $650 million milestone at the box office in North America. It will thus not surpass Jurassic World‘s domestic haul as Universal’s #1 film in its original run. The Odyssey would have to suffice by staying at #2 among Universal’s releases.
