Set to surpass Universal’s Him worldwide
Him is a sports horror drama by Justin Tipping, featuring Marlon Wayans, Julia Fox, and others. The film was co-produced by Oscar-winner Jordan Peele and distributed by Universal Pictures. It received negative reviews and became a box-office flop. According to Box Office Mojo, Him grossed $27.8 million worldwide.
Iron Lung is now all set to surpass the worldwide total of Him. Markiplier‘s small-budget indie horror is less than $2 million away from surpassing the worldwide haul of Him. Iron Lung is a creator-driven, largely independent project spearheaded by Markiplier, not a traditional studio horror film. Beating a wide studio release will reinforce the commercial viability of creator-led theatrical films.
