Jurᴀssic Park‘s legacy continues to stomp its way through the modern box office with 2025’s Jurᴀssic World: Rebirth, the latest chapter in the decades-spanning dinosaur movie saga. However, while the film hasn’t reached the critical heights of the franchise’s earlier entries, it has just crossed a financial milestone that nudges it ahead of one of the Marvel Cinematic Universe’s beloved films.

According to data via Box Office Mojo, Jurᴀssic World: Rebirth has officially overtaken Thor: Ragnarok at the global box office by an incredibly slim margin of $280,809. Rebirth has grossed a total of $855.58 million worldwide, compared to Ragnarok‘s $855.30 million — bringing in $338.3 million domestically and $517.3 million overseas.

Rebirth has certainly managed to draw in global audiences, enough to claim the No. 96 spot on the Top Lifetime Grosses list, pushing Ragnarok down to 97. That being said, Ragnarok still maintains a stronger critical reception, with a 93% “Certified Fresh” Rotten Tomatoes score and 87% Popcornmeter, while Rebirth’s Tomatometer sits at a “Rotten” 51% with a divisive 71% Popcornmeter.

What This Means For Jurᴀssic World: Rebirth

Jurᴀssic World: Rebirth‘s narrow victory over Thor: Ragnarok proves the Jurᴀssic brand still holds considerable power at the box office, particularly overseas. Despite the lack of glowing reviews from critics or cultural buzz seen with Marvel Cinematic Universe projects, Rebirth was able to match and just barely surpᴀss the financial success of one of Marvel’s adored films.

Still, context matters, as earlier entries in the Jurᴀssic movie franchise performed significantly better than Rebirth. For example, 2015’s Jurᴀssic World earned over $1.6 billion, earning the No. 6 spot on the Lifetime Gross list, and even 2018’s Fallen Kingdom cleared $1.3 billion. Compared to other Jurᴀssic Worlds, Rebirth‘s current total is solid, but far from a franchise peak.

Our Take On Jurᴀssic World: Rebirth’s Latest Box Office Milestone

Jurᴀssic World: Rebirth inching past a film like Thor: Ragnarok is both a win and a warning. The global box office success proves that the Jurᴀssic name alone is clearly still a draw for audiences, but the fact that it only just pᴀssed a 2017 film, despite years of anticipation, suggests the franchise might be losing some of its roar.

Evidently, audiences are still showing up, but not in the same overwhelming numbers as in the franchise’s prime. This could be a turning point, as Universal now has proof there is still an audience out there, as shown through Jurᴀssic World: Rebirth‘s financial success, but it will take more than familiar branding and new CGI dinosaurs to truly break ground.
