‘28 Years Later: The Bone Temple’ Slumps to $46 Million as Steep Second-Weekend Drop Darkens Outlook

Analysts now expect a $65 million to $85 million finish, far below the level typically needed to break even.

Overview

  • The sequel fell 71.2% in North America to $3.6 million in its second weekend, bringing domestic revenue to about $20.6–$20.7 million.
  • International grosses stand near $25.3 million for roughly $46 million worldwide, trailing its reported $63 million production budget.
  • Using a standard 2.5× budget benchmark, the theatrical break-even target is around $157.5 million, which current projections do not approach.
  • The film holds a 93% critics’ score on Rotten Tomatoes, marking franchise-best reviews despite weak commercial returns.
  • It has already topped the lifetime global totals of Dredd and Serenity and is within a few million of overtaking The Hurt Locker’s $49.2 million.
