In addition to earning an impressive 88% critics’ score and 85% audience score on Rotten Tomatoes (Source: RT), Stephen King’s cinematic adaptation, The Long Walk, is making its presence felt at the global box office. Recently, the dystopian survival thriller surpassed Frank Darabont’s iconic prison drama The Shawshank Redemption, the highest-ranked movie of all time on IMDb. With a current worldwide total of $35.8 million, it is on track to enter the top 50 highest-grossing films of 2025 in the coming days.
Beyond outgrossing several 2025 releases, including Warfare, Together, and Caught Stealing, The Long Walk has also overtaken the action-comedy Novocaine, which starred The Boys actor Jack Quaid. Now, it’s closing in on the lifetime earnings of another Jack Quaid film—the 93%-rated sci-fi thriller Companion, as well as the immensely popular AI-centric sequel M3GAN 2.0. Here’s how much The Long Walk still needs to earn to surpass Companion and the M3GAN sequel at the global box office.
