Overview

  • Jurassic World Rebirth grossed an estimated $30.5 million on opening day and is projected to earn $133.5 million domestically and roughly $260 million worldwide over the extended Fourth of July weekend.
  • Early Rotten Tomatoes scores show a 74% audience rating alongside a 53% critics’ score, reflecting a clear split in fan and critical reception.
  • Director Gareth Edwards resets the franchise five years after Dominion by confining surviving dinosaurs to equatorial zones and spotlighting engineered hybrids like winged predators and the Distortus Rex.
  • The film presents a standalone heist-style narrative without any post-credits scene, signaling a franchise reset rather than directly setting up a sequel.
  • Universal plans to follow the theatrical run with a premium video on demand release in mid-August and a debut on Peacock streaming in early October.
