Acclaimed filmmaker Paul Thomas Anderson has been nominated for 11 Oscars across multiple categories throughout his illustrious career, but has yet to secure a win. That could change with his latest directorial venture, One Battle After Another, which is already being hailed by film enthusiasts as a strong Oscar contender in several major categories. On the box office front, the Leonardo DiCaprio-starrer action thriller has now grossed $196.7 million globally (via Box Office Mojo), inching closer to the $200 million milestone.
While the film has already recovered its estimated $140 million production budget (via The Numbers), it remains to be seen whether the critically acclaimed title can reach its box office break-even point before completing its ongoing theatrical run. After out-grossing several past hits, One Battle After Another is now closing in on the worldwide total of Tom Holland’s Hollywood debut, The Impossible (2012). Here’s how much more Paul Thomas Anderson’s film needs to surpass it in global earnings.

With a current global haul of $196.7 million, One Battle After Another is still behind the worldwide total of its next 2025 box office rival, Snow White ($205.7 million), by around $9 million. However, at its current pace, it seems unlikely that the action thriller will be able to overtake Snow White before the end of its current theatrical run.
