After the very disappointing Jurassic World: the world afterthe dinos saga returns this summer to our screens this summer. Exit Colin Trevorrow, Bryce Dallas Howard and Chris Pratt, Universal wants to go on the right foot with new characters, new creatives and a new approach. Jurassic World Renaissance Returns its name, it remains to be seen now if the public will be there.
Universal plays big on this one, the firm hopes to dominate the summer box office with its dinos. But the competition is tough, between the return of DC to the cinema after the failure of its previous license and the renewal of Marvel with The fantastic 4: first steps. In pole position, Jurassic World Rebirth of his original title, does he have all his chances? The forecasts of the American box office have fallen and they are rather encouraging.
A rush start?
According to analysts of The Hollywood ReporterGareth Edwards’ film should report between 120 and 125 million dollars During his first operating weekend. Note that the film is released in the cinema during the holidays of July 4 at United States, a period rather conducive to a real box. For his part, Deadline table rather on a fork between 115 and 135 million dollars after five days. Beautiful scores in both cases, but Universal and Amblin are also confident. The two entities are betting more on revenues up to 90 or 100 million dollars on American soil.
These figures could make many licenses in difficulty pale, but are far from the standards of the multimillionaire franchise. For comparison, the 2015 reboot brought in $ 208.8 million (excluding inflation) when it came out. Jurassic World : Fallen Kingdom had distinguished himself with 148 million in 2018 while Jurassic Word: The world after displayed an opening weekend at 145 million in 2022. The period was still tense for industry, after a health crisis which had largely affected the attendance of dark rooms.
Not the billion for Jurassic World?

In any case, this would be a first since 2015 and a strong signal for the film industry. Jurassic World among the rare licenses which have not experienced major defeat in recent years.
The fact remains that Renaissance benefits from a budget significantly lower than its predecessor (180 million against 265 for the world according to), thus offering itself more likely to be a profitable operation for Universal and Amblin. It remains to be seen now if the public will be there.
