With Dominion’s sequel hitting the theatres on July 2, 2025, Universal’s Jurassic World Rebirth earnings are a topic of conversation right now. The movie made $82.1 million on the opening weekend. Moreover, the gross worldwide income came to $312 million.
The movie stars big names like Scarlett Johansson, Jonathan Bailey, Mahershala Ali, Rupert Friend, and Manuel Garcia‑Rulfo. Previously, the movie’s predecessor, Dominion, concluded the prior trilogy. Rebirth is set in 2027 and continues the story five years after Dominion’s timeline. It currently holds a 62% critics’ score with a 78% audience rating.
What Was The Budget For Jurassic World Rebirth?
Now, let’s start with the hot topic around the Jurassic World Rebirth earnings. Sure, the gross numbers might seem effective at first glance, but are they? The last three movies, namely Jurassic World (2015), Fallen Kingdom (2018), and Dominion (2022), of the franchise had each accumulated a billion dollars. In comparison, Rebirth could hardly do 30% of the same.
The production budget for the movie was $180 million, with an estimated whopping $265 million spent by Universal. It includes all budgets, as speculated by netizens. In comparison, for nearly a little less or more of the same value, Rebirth’s predecessors did exceptionally better.
Well, the movie wasn’t just left to sell based on its face value and old franchise heritage. Universal hosted massive marketing campaigns, from dropping the trailer at the 2025 Super Bowl to doing partnerships with big corporations, including Dr. Pepper, 7-Eleven, and Lego. Hell, they even got NBA star Shai Alexander on the team.

High numbers were reached, with nearly 900 million on social platforms and the trailer breaking the 30 million mark. And for the first time in the franchise’s history, there was a premiere held in Seoul, South Korea, noting the high box office boosts from the country in the past.
There are many speculations going around among industry critics and netizens about what could be the reason for the disappointing or, hopefully, just mild start.
Is it the high competition at the box office? People have too many options nowadays, thanks to streaming services. The sudden shift and leaning towards darker horror themes was a bad idea? Or is the audience over the whole Jurassic saga? Should the producers and directors finally put a stop to milking the series until they get an idea worth putting on screen? Many fans were complaining about the lack of legacy actors as well.
What’s Next for the Jurassic World Reboot?
While Universal has yet to confirm a sequel, insiders hint that Rebirth could mark the beginning of a new trilogy if the box office performance holds strong.
Lots of speculation, no clear answers. For now, we, along with many others, are very interested to note how the upcoming weeks will be for Rebirth. Will the dinosaurs survive, or will the asteroid finally bring them to perish?
