On Sunday (March 22), Ryan Gosling’s Project Hail Mary topped the domestic box office with an impressive $20.4 million haul, followed by Pixar’s Hoppers ($5.1 million) and the Indian action thriller Dhurandhar: The Revenge ($3.1 million). Meanwhile, Wuthering Heights, Emerald Fennell’s big-screen adaptation of Emily Brontë’s classic novel, added $0.1 million and retained its spot in the top 10. Over the March 20-22 weekend, the steamy romance earned $0.5 million across 601 North American theaters, taking its cumulative domestic total to $83.3 million.
Worldwide Total, Projected Earnings & Estimated Theatrical Surplus
At the worldwide box office, Wuthering Heights has grossed $234.4 million so far and is projected to conclude its global run at around $250 million. If it achieves that target, the film is expected to generate a theatrical surplus of roughly $50 million, based on its reported $80 million budget and an estimated $200 million break-even point, using the 2.5x multiplier rule.
As it enters the later stages of its theatrical run, Margot Robbie and Jacob Elordi’s latest release is now closing in on the domestic total of Sydney Sweeney and Glen Powell’s 2023 romantic comedy, Anyone But You, which delivered more than 8 times its reported $25 million budget. Here’s how much more Wuthering Heights needs to earn to surpass it at the North American box office.

Wuthering Heights vs. Anyone But You – Box Office Comparison
Here’s how the two films compare at the global and domestic box office, based on data from Box Office Mojo:
Wuthering Heights – Box Office Summary
- North America: $83.3 million
- International: $151.1 million
- Worldwide: $234.4 million
Anyone But You – Box Office Summary
- North America: $88.3 million
- International: $132 million
- Worldwide: $220.3 million
Based on the above figures, Wuthering Heights is approximately $5 million short of overtaking the domestic total of Anyone But You. If it demonstrates steady weekday holds and weekend earnings over its remaining theatrical run, it is expected to outgross Anyone But You in the coming weeks. That said, the steamy romantic drama has already surpassed the 2023 film in worldwide earnings, thanks to its stronger international performance. The final box office verdict of Wuthering Heights should be clear in the next few weeks.
What’s Wuthering Heights All About
Based on Emily Brontë’s classic novel, the film tells the story of Heathcliff (Jacob Elordi) and Catherine Earnshaw (Margot Robbie), whose deep but troubled love is defined by jealousy, pride, and social barriers. Their intense relationship causes pain and destruction, affecting not only their own lives but also everyone around them.
