Dune 2 Box Office Punches Past Huge Global Milestone (So Is Reaching $1B Possible?)

This article covers a developing story. Continue to check back with us as we will be adding more information as it becomes available.

Summary Dune: Part Two surpasses $700 million at the worldwide box office, nearing the billion-dollar mark.

The movie is the No. 1 release of 2024 so far.

The movie shows signs of slowing down that could mean it won't earn $1 billion.

Dune: Part Two has passed a huge global milestone at the box office. The movie, which is a sequel to Denis Villeneuve's 2021 hit Dune, concludes that movie's adaptation by bringing the second half of the classic 1965 Frank Herbert novel of the same name to the screen. Alongside returning stars such as Timothée Chalamet as Paul Atreides and Zendaya as Chani, the movie adds a new ensemble that includes Florence Pugh as Princess Irulan and Austin Butler as Feyd-Rautha Harkonnen.

Per Deadline, the Dune: Part Two box office has pushed past $700 million in the global marketplace during its ninth weekend in theaters. This is a substantial improvement over the original 2021 movie, which ended up earning $407.6 million worldwide by the time its theatrical run concluded. The sequel is still roughly $300 million away from the coveted billion-dollar mark, which no movie has reached so far in 2024, as the sci-fi epic is the No. 1 title of the year.
