1. F1 Targeting Its Next 2025 Box Office Rival Worldwide
Among 2025 releases, Brad Pitt’s F1 currently trails just behind the live-action remake of How to Train Your Dragon, which has grossed $636.4 million worldwide. This places the sports drama roughly $4.6 million short of the fantasy adventure’s global total. With renewed visibility and premium-format appeal from its upcoming IMAX re-release, F1 has a realistic chance of potentially overtaking How to Train Your Dragon and climbing further up the 2025 worldwide box office rankings.
2. The $200 Million Domestic Mark
As of now, F1 has earned $189.6 million in North America, leaving it about $10.4 million short of reaching the $200 million domestic milestone. If the film attracts enough footfall from returning and first-time viewers, and given the awareness around its IMAX re-release, it could still reach this benchmark. The final numbers should become clearer in the coming weeks.
3. F1 Aims To Outgross Thunderbolts* & Mission: Impossible – The Final Reckoning In North America
F1 trails the domestic totals of Thunderbolts* ($190.3 million) and Mission: Impossible – The Final Reckoning ($197.4 million). To surpass these films, the Brad Pitt-led sports drama needs to add roughly $700K and $7.8 million, respectively. While F1 should comfortably overtake the Marvel title following its IMAX re-release, potentially surpassing the latest Mission: Impossible entry may take a bit longer. The final verdict should be clear in the weeks ahead.
F1 – Story & Lead Cast
Directed by Joseph Kosinski, F1 follows Sonny Hayes (Brad Pitt), a Formula One driver who raced in the 1990s but slowed down after a devastating crash. Many years later, Sonny is asked by his old friend and struggling F1 team owner, Ruben (Javier Bardem), to make a comeback to the racing track and mentor a young and gifted driver, Joshua Pearce (played by Damson Idris). Sonny must now prove he still has what it takes to compete at the sport’s highest level.
