In addition to winning over critics and cinephiles and earning an 86% Rotten Tomatoes critics’ score, a 91% audience score, and a solid 7.3/10 IMDb rating, The Fantastic Four: First Steps is currently among the top ten highest-grossing movies of 2025 globally. Its global earnings have already outgrossed major 2025 releases, including Captain America: Brave New World, Thunderbolts*, Sinners, and Final Destination: Bloodlines. However, surpassing Brad Pitt’s F1 and James Gunn’s Superman looks unlikely.

The superhero movie is now closing in on the highest-grossing John Wick film. Here’s how First Steps compares with the John Wick franchise at the global box office.
