"Jurassic World" had a huge opening weekend at the box office, and it only continues to get bigger.

The film, which debuted to an estimated $204.6 million in North America, opened to $307.2 million overseas, bringing its worldwide opening weekend to $511.8 million.

That figure not only makes it Universal's largest box-office opening ever, but also the largest worldwide opening for a movie ever and the only to crack $500 million in its first weekend. The 'Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 2' is second all-time at $483 million.

Universal's last big film, April's "Furious 7,"opened to $147 million. The sequel has made over $1.5 billion worldwide.

Starring Chris Pratt ("Guardians of the Galaxy"), "Jurassic World" is well on its way to becoming Universal's next billion-dollar movie of 2015.

Here are some of the box-office totals around the world for "Jurassic World" via BoxOffice.com:

China: $100.8 million
