Following its theatrical release on August 8, 2025, Barbarian director Zach Cregger’s mystery horror film Weapons not only garnered rave reviews from both critics and audiences but also performed strongly at the global box office. Armed with a 94% Rotten Tomatoes critics’ score and a worldwide total of $259.7 million, Weapons now ranks as the 16th highest-grossing film overall and the third top-grossing horror title of 2025. With $147.6 million coming from North America, it is also on track to surpass the $150 million mark domestically.
Weapons has recently outgrossed several popular films like Rush Hour 3 (2007), Erin Brockovich (2000), Annabelle (2014), Us (2019), and Men in Black: International (2019). It is now just inches away from outperforming the 2010 action-comedy Knight and Day, starring Tom Cruise and Cameron Diaz and directed by James Mangold, who also helmed Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny (2023). Let’s see how much more Weapons needs to earn to overtake the fifth and final installment of the Indiana Jones series.

- Worldwide: $259.7 million
Knight and Day – Box Office Summary
