Worldwide Total Needed To Surpass Danny Boyle’s Oscar-Nominated Survival Drama

28 Years Later: The Bone Temple Box Office Update ( Photo Credit – Instagram ) Nia DaCosta’s 28 Years Later: The Bone Temple is yet another example of a not-so-uncommon box office trend: films earning strong critical and audience approval but failing to convert that goodwill into an equally strong theatrical footfall. The zombie sequel holds an impressive 92% critics’ score on Rotten Tomatoes, making it the highest-rated entry in the 28 Years Later franchise to date. But the positive reception has not translated into sustained momentum at the box office, and its theater count has now dropped to around 2,000 screens in North America. Despite its modest run, The Bone Temple currently ranks as the highest-grossing release of 2026 so far, with a global total of $53.8 million, according to Box Office Mojo. That position, however, appears vulnerable. With Sam Raimi’s Send Help (currently #4 at $28.6 million) and several other recent and forthcoming theatrical releases gaining traction, the film is unlikely to hold onto the top spot for long. As its theatrical run …
