The dinosaurs ruled the box office. Jurassic World had a T. rex-sized $204.6 million opening. It was the second-largest North American debut weekend of all time, coming up just short of the record, set by Marvel's The Avengers, which earned $207.4 million in 2012. Jurassic World was a hit overseas too. The flick, starring Chris Pratt and Bryce Dallas Howard, was the first to gross more than $500 million globally in a single weekend.
The Melissa McCarthy comedy Spy dropped to a very distant second with $16 million.
