Los Angeles, March 4 - Warner Bros. Pictures/Legendary Pictures' Dune: Part 2 stormed the worldwide box office in its opening weekend, grossing over $178 million over 72 markets including North America.

Directed by Denis Villeneuve, the epic sci-fi crushed industry projections to gross a solid $81.5 million (675 crores) in North America in the first weekend which is almost double the first movie's $41 million back in 2021 when the movie opened simultaneously in theatres and HBO Max.



Dune 2 could be an IMAX phenomenon going forward as around 23% of the total domestic opening weekend gross came from IMAX showing at $18.5 million (153 crores) where ticket rates are higher than regular prices. It is also the biggest opening for both, director Denis Villeneuve and actor Timothée Chalamet.
