Dune 2 has completely smashed it out of the park in its opening weekend, breaking multiple box office records, and even besting its predecessor.
As reported by Variety, Director Denis Villeneuve's big-budget sequel to the 2021 sci-fi epic has collected $81.5 million in its US domestic debut, and a further $97 million at the international box office, totaling a massive $178 million globally. This crowns Dune 2 as the biggest opening weekend of the year so far, and the only film as of late that even comes close to Taylor Swift's concert film The Eras Tour which debuted at $93 million in October 2023.
