Paul Thomas Anderson’s critically acclaimed action-thriller, One Battle After Another, has completed two weeks in theaters. The Leonardo DiCaprio starrer has earned $49.8 million in North America and $73.9 million from international markets, bringing its worldwide total to $123.7 million (per Box Office Mojo).
However, with the release of Tron: Ares, the third installment in the Tron franchise, and other recent films, competition at the global box office has intensified. Made on an estimated production budget of $140 million (The Numbers), the film needs around $350 million to break even, using the 2.5x multiplier rule.
While reaching this milestone may be challenging, One Battle After Another is emerging as a strong contender for major Oscar categories and has already surpassed several past hits. It is now approaching the lifetime earnings of the underrated 2012 sci-fi superhero film Chronicle, which starred Sinners actor Michael B. Jordan. Here’s how much Leonardo DiCaprio’s film needs to earn to outgross it globally.
One Battle After Another vs. Chronicle – Box Office Comparison
Here’s how the two films stack up at the box office, according to data from Box Office Mojo:
One Battle After Another – Box Office Summary
Domestic: $49.8 million
International: $73.9 million
Worldwide: $123.7 million
Chronicle – Box Office Summary
Domestic: $64.5 million
International: $62.1 million
Worldwide: $126.6 million
As the numbers show, One Battle After Another currently trails Chronicle by just under $3 million in worldwide earnings. Given its current momentum, it’s just a matter of time before Leonardo DiCaprio’s action thriller surpasses the 2012 sci-fi superhero hit at the global box office.
What One Battle After Another Needs To Crack 2025’s Top 20
For the action thriller to enter the top 20 highest-grossing films of 2025, it must surpass the current 20th spot holder, Freakier Friday, at the global box office. So far, Freakier Friday has earned $152.8 million, meaning One Battle After Another needs to collect at least $29.1 million more to reach this milestone. At its current pace, the film is expected to hit the target in the coming days.
