Action-packed “Jurassic World,” featuring a new and particularly lethal hybrid dino, raked in a whopping $511 million globally in its debut at cinemas, according to box office tracker Exhibitor Relations on Sunday.

That was the largest weekend take in history, eclipsing Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 2 ($483 million in 2011), according to The Hollywood Reporter.

The unprecedented haul for “Jurassic World” — which has had largely good, if not sparkling reviews — was boosted by the $100 million earned in China alone and the blockbuster topped the box office in 66 countries.

In North America, “Jurassic World” made $204.6 million, just short of the record for an opening weekend in the region, held by Marvel’s “The Avengers” at $207.4 million in 2012.

“This is absolutely a four-quadrant movie and is working on so many levels. The release date was awesome and everybody stayed off of our date,” The Hollywood Reporter quoted Universal domestic distribution chief Nick Carpou as saying.

In addition to Chris Pratt as chief dinosaur-keeper and Bryce Dallas Howard as the park’s overzealous marketing guru, the cast of the film includes a multi-ethnic array of actors.

Co-produced by Steven Spielberg — who directed the first two of the four films — “Jurassic World” takes us back to the island theme park where scientists first revived T-Rex and Co. for paying customers more than two decades ago.

Paul Dergarabedian, a media analyst at Rentrak, told AFP that “Jurassic World” benefited from something of a perfect box-office storm.

“Nostalgia, legacy, pedigree: Three things that can make a newly updated franchise a monster,” he said.
