The countdown to the 2026 Oscars is already underway. The winners of the prestigious Academy Awards will be announced on March 15, 2026, at the Dolby Theatre in Hollywood. Among the major contenders this year are Leonardo DiCaprio’s action thriller One Battle After Another, which has earned 13 nominations, and Timothée Chalamet’s sports comedy-drama Marty Supreme, which has secured nine nominations.
While One Battle After Another marked filmmaker Paul Thomas Anderson’s most expensive project to date, it also became his highest-grossing film. However, despite strong critical reception and Leonardo DiCaprio’s star power, the film ultimately underperformed at the box office relative to its budget.
On the other hand, Josh Safdie’s Marty Supreme earned less overall but was produced on a significantly leaner budget. This brings an interesting question to the fore: which of these Oscar-nominated films actually delivered the better return on its budget? Let’s break down the numbers.
