After nearly a month in theaters, Liam Neeson’s action-comedy The Naked Gun has grossed $89.1 million worldwide. This makes the latest Naked Gun movie the highest-grossing installment in the franchise. Recently, it also surpassed the worldwide totals of several 2025 titles, including Jason Statham action-thriller A Working Man, the star-studded rom-com Materialists, and the I Know What You Did Last Summer sequel.
With a reported $42 million budget, The Naked Gun would need to hit roughly $105 million globally to break even. While turning a profit at the box office looks difficult at this stage, the film is nevertheless on the verge of outgrossing a Final Destination entry. We’re talking about the 2003 entry, Final Destination 2, and here’s how the two films stack up at the global box office.
