Amazon MGM has been quietly building a cinematic arsenal over the past few years, and with only 15 films under its belt, the studio is already leaving a serious mark. The Catalog, which boasts stylish thrillers like Saltburn, A Working Man, and The Beekeeper, leans heavily into bold choices and has focused on making each release count. And now, The Accountant 2, a sequel nobody asked for but everyone seems to be watching, has edged its way into third place on the studio’s all-time domestic (North American) box office chart.
The Accountant 2 Becomes A Domestic Box Office Standout
The film’s climb has been steady rather than spectacular. After another decent weekend run, pulling in $6.7 million across over 3,400 screens in the domestic market, the total North American haul now stands at $53.5 million (per Box Office Mojo). Toss in $31.5 million from international markets, and the global box office clocks in at $85 million.
With its reported $80 million budget now recouped, the Ben Affleck project is finally in the green—or at least close enough to breathe easy. Still, closing the gap between this and the studio’s bigger hitters might be a bridge too far. The Beekeeper’s $66 million domestic total might be within reach, but Red One’s near-$100 million run looks more like a mountain than a milestone.
