James Gunn’s Superman reboot and Brad Pitt’s Formula One drama F1 have been in a neck-and-neck box office race. Released just two weeks apart, F1 on June 27, 2025, and Superman on July 11, 2025, both films are now available on digital platforms on a pay-per-view basis. With the playing field now even, the big question remains: which one will ultimately gross more worldwide? Let’s break down the numbers.

Superman Vs. F1 – Box Office Comparison

Here’s the box office breakdown for the two films, according to data from Box Office Mojo.

Superman – Box Office Summary

  • North America: $348.1 million
  • International: $258.5 million
  • Worldwide: $606.6 million

F1 – Box Office Summary

  • North America – $186.5 million
  • International – $420.6 million
  • Worldwide – $607.1 million

Until recently, Superman held a narrow lead over F1 at the global box office as both films currently running in theaters as well. But after several days of running neck-and-neck, Brad Pitt’s sports drama has now edged past the David Corenswet-led superhero reboot. F1 is currently ahead by just under $500K. Unless Superman receives a bigger boost in either the North American market or overseas, the gap could widen further in the coming days.

Based on current momentum, both films are projected to finish around the $620 million mark worldwide. However, with F1 recently picking up speed and edging past Superman, it seems likely that Brad Pitt’s highest-grossing film to date might ultimately take the lead in this global box office race. The final outcome should be clear in the next few weeks.

Superman Or F1 – Who Has A Better Rotten Tomatoes Score?

Superman currently holds an 83% critics’ score on Rotten Tomatoes, narrowly ahead of F1’s 82%. However, when it comes to the audience ratings, the tables turn. F1 leads with a stellar 97% audience score, compared to Superman’s 90%.
