The movie has crossed the $50 million mark domestically and, with its international haul combined, now stands at $92.6 million worldwide. As it inches closer to the $100 million milestone, here’s a look at how much more Predator: Badlands needs to earn to break even at the global box office.

With an estimated production budget of $105 million (via Variety), Predator: Badlands stands as the most expensive film in the Predator franchise to date. Applying the standard 2.5x multiplier rule for break-even calculations, the movie needs to earn approximately $262.5 million worldwide to recover its costs. This means it still requires around $170 million more to cross its break-even threshold. If the film maintains its current momentum and strong word-of-mouth continues, it is well-positioned to break even before moving into profitable territory.

Here’s how every film in the Predator franchise has performed at the global box office.
- Predator (1987): $59.7 million
- Predator 2 (1990): $30.7 million
- Alien vs. Predator (2004): $177.4 million
- Aliens vs. Predator: Requiem (2007): $130.3 million
- Predators (2010): $127.2 million
- The Predator (2018): $160.5 million
As the numbers indicate, Predator: Badlands has already surpassed the first two entries in the franchise. However, it is still trailing the next four installments by approximately $84.9 million, $37.8 million, $34.7 million, and $68 million, respectively. If the film maintains its current pace, it is projected to overtake all previous entries and potentially emerge as the highest-grossing Predator film by the end of its theatrical run.
