Per a report by Collider, the sci-fi epic has surpassed its predecessor Dune’s earnings in the US. This past week, Dune: Part Two overtook the lifetime US earnings of its predecessor, Dune, which was released in 2021. The first Dune concluded its theatrical run with over $108 million at the US box office and over $400 million worldwide; it recently reportedly added $30 million to its global haul after a one-week re-release in the run-up to Dune: Part Two’s release on March 1.
Riding strong reviews, great word-of-mouth and plenty of sand worms, Dune: Part Two appears well set up for a long theatrical run. Produced on a reported budget of $190 million, Dune: Part Two will need to gross around $500 million globally to break even, the Collider report added. As per current trends, the film is eyeing a huge lifetime worldwide haul of around $700 million.
