\n\t\u201cJurassic World Rebirth<\/a>\u201d is roaring at the international box office, climbing to $171 million from 82 markets in its first weekend of release.<\/p>\n

\n\tThe seventh installment in Universal\u2019s long-running dino series \u2014 this time starring Scarlett Johansson, Jonathan Bailey and Mahershala Ali \u2014 has devoured a mighty $318 million worldwide since Wednesday, including $147 million at the domestic box office<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\n\tDirected by Gareth Edwards and written by original \u201cJurassic Park\u201d screenwriter David Koepp, \u201cJurassic World Rebirth\u201d reboots the long-running sci-fi franchise with an entirely new cast and mission (this film revolves around a top-secret quest to retrieve the DNA of dinosaurs to create a miracle drug). Although the newest installment is experiencing a slight case of diminishing initial returns in North America, the series remains hugely popular at the international box office. (Overseas audiences were key in propelling the preceding \u201cJurassic World\u201d trilogy, led by Chris Pratt and Bryce Dallas Howard, past the billion-dollar mark.) For \u201cRebirth,\u201d top-earning territories so far include China with $41 million, the United Kingdom and Ireland with $16.6 million, Mexico with $13.9 million and Germany with $7.6 million.<\/p>\n

\n\tIn second place on international box office charts, Apple\u2019s \u201cF1: The Movie\u201d collected $56.3 million from 78 markets in its sophomore outing. The racing drama, starring Brad Pitt as a has-been Formula One driver, has collected $184 million overseas and $293 million worldwide to date. Those are strong ticket sales for an original, adult-skewing tentpole. But the $250 million-budgeted \u201cF1\u201d will require many laps around the track to justify its massive price tag. <\/p>\n

\n\tIn other box office news, Disney\u2019s \u201cLilo & Stitch\u201d is inching closer and closer to the billion-dollar milestone. So far the live-action remake has grossed $564.2 million internationally and $972.7 million globally after seven weekends of release. With those ticket sales, \u201cLilo & Stitch\u201d has officially overtaken \u201cA Minecraft Movie\u201d ($954 million) as the year\u2019s highest-grossing Hollywood release. However, China\u2019s blockbuster \u201cNe Zha 2\u201d remains by far the biggest film of 2025 with $1.8 billion in the bank. <\/p>\n

\n\tMeanwhile, another family-friendly Disney property, Pixar\u2019s intergalactic adventure \u201cElio,\u201d continues to crater with $41.7 million overseas and $96.8 million worldwide after three weekends of release. This dismal turnout, despite decent reviews and audience scores, signals that original animation is facing dire straits at the box office.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"\u201cJurassic World Rebirth\u201d is roaring at the international box office, climbing to $171 million from 82 markets in…\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":44007,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[9],"tags":[171,238,7659,67,132,68],"class_list":{"0":"post-44006","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-entertainment","8":"tag-entertainment","9":"tag-jurassic-world-rebirth","10":"tag-lilo-stitch","11":"tag-united-states","12":"tag-unitedstates","13":"tag-us"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@us\/114807724608529214","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/44006","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/3"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=44006"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/44006\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/44007"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=44006"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=44006"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=44006"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
