Despite newer Warner Bros. features entering theaters and adding further competition, Dune: Part Two is holding strong and is set to surpass $250 million at the domestic box office over the weekend. Denis Villeneuve’s two-part adaptation of Frank Herbert’s influential sci-fi novel continues, as Timothée Chalamet’s Paul Atriedes seeks vengeance against the Harkonnens. Praised by critics and audiences alike, Dune: Part Two has had a continuously strong box-office run.
As Dune: Part Two enters its fifth weekend at the box office, Variety reports that newer releases won’t halt its performance. While Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire enters theaters, Dune: Part Two has only experienced a 23% drop to $3.4 million at the box office. This leaves Villeneuve’s feature on track to earn $250 million from domestic screenings.
This is a developing story…
