The sequel to 2015 reboot Jurassic World has begun with a nifty £10.6m for the weekend period, and £14.3m including Wednesday and Thursday previews.
Delivering the second biggest opening weekend number this year – behind only Avengers: Infinity War – Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom has taken a dino-size bite out of the UK box office.
Jurassic World went on to achieve a stunning lifetime total of £64.3m, then the seventh biggest film of all time at the UK box office – and currently the 13th biggest.
Those numbers compare with a £23.1m debut UK weekend and £29.4m, including previews, for Avengers: Infinity War.
