The dinosaurs are back on top. The latest “Jurassic World” movie returns to the top of the global box-office leaderboard for the weekend of June 24, ahead of “Incredibles 2.” “Ocean’s 8” stays in third place.
“Incredibles 2” has slipped from the number one spot at the international box office, taking second place this weekend with grosses of $137 million. The superhero family’s second adventure, out June 15 in the US, is proving a phenomenal success and enjoyed a record-breaking opening weekend in US theaters. The Pixar movie has already grossed more than $485 million worldwide.
Chris Pratt and the dinosaurs return to the top spot in Juan Antonio Bayona’s “Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom.” The latest film in the hit franchise returns to the number one slot with grosses topping $256 million this weekend, its opening weekend in the US. The movie’s total global grosses now stand at more than $711 million.
In third place, the all-female heist movie “Ocean’s 8,” which opened June 8 in the US, grossed over $38 million. Although it comes ahead of “Deadpool 2” this weekend, “Ocean’s 8” — starring Sandra Bullock and Cate Blanchett, and directed by Gary Ross — has failed to take the box office by storm. The action film has grossed $170 million worldwide so far, compared with $707 million for David Leitch’s movie.
