One Battle After Another Worldwide Box Office: Leonardo DiCaprio’s Action Thriller Surpasses David Fincher’s Early 2000s Thriller

Had a film like Leonardo DiCaprio’s One Battle After Another been released in the pre-COVID era, it would likely have been declared a clear box office hit. While it remains uncertain whether the action thriller will fully recover its production costs, cinephiles across the world have still thronged theaters to witness their favorite star on the big screen in a well-made film. With a current global haul of $196.7 million, the film is now looking to surpass the $200 million milestone before wrapping up its theatrical run.

As of now, Paul Thomas Anderson’s directorial venture stands among the top 20 highest-grossing films of 2025, trailing just behind Snow White ($205.7 million), as per Box Office Mojo. The critically acclaimed title has also surpassed the lifetime earnings of one of David Fincher’s underrated early 2000s thrillers, the 2002 film Panic Room, starring Jodie Foster and Kristen Stewart. Let’s see how the two films stack up at the global box office.
