How does Jurassic World Dominion's box office collection compare to previous Jurassic Park movies?
Having made over $1 billion at the box office worldwide since its release in 2022, Jurassic World Dominion has been a huge success. The movie takes place in a world where humans and dinosaurs live in harmony, four years after the events of Fallen Kingdom.
In its first domestic box office opening, it brought in $145,075,625. The movie's first-weekend gross was $143.3 million, helping it rank as the 29th most successful ever. Rotten Tomatoes gives Jurassic World Dominion a 29% approval rating, while Metacritic gives it a 38 out of 100 rating.
What is the estimated budget for Jurassic World Dominion?
The film is among the most expensive in history due to its $328.6 million production budget. Together, Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom and Dominion cost $844.7 million, making them some of the most pricey films ever produced.
Fallen Kingdom, at $432 million, is one of the costliest movies ever made, only surpassed in price by Star Wars: The Force Awakens. These films were produced at a high cost and Fallen Kingdom's budget was almost three times higher than what was anticipated.
There was also a noticeable gender pay gap among the staff, with women earning less than men, and a peak crew count of 454 for Fallen Kingdom. In the Jurassic World franchise, Bryce Dallas Howard talked about the salary difference between her and Chris Pratt, in an interview with Insider.
After it was discovered that Howard was paid substantially less than Pratt, the $2 million salary difference, that was initially reported, was much larger. In spin-off Jurassic World projects, Chris Pratt pushed for equal pay for both actors, making sure they received the same salary for video games and theme parks.
A major turning point in the Jurassic Park franchise, the movie's financial success cedes it a spot among the highest-grossing movies of 2022.
