Released on Wednesday, June 25 in select international markets and expanding across North America by Friday, June 27, F1 is now on track for a $55–65 million domestic weekend and a $135–155 million global take by the end of its 5-day launch period.
What’s Driving F1’s Box Office Success?
- Brad Pitt’s star power and real-life F1 buzz
- Kosinski’s cinematic flair after Top Gun: Maverick
- Smart pre-release marketing and positive early buzz
- Strong reception in key overseas markets
Despite being a sports drama, a genre with traditionally niche appeal, F1 has managed to find traction with both casual and core audiences, thanks in part to its slick visuals, thrilling race sequences, and Brad Pitt’s charisma.
But Will It Be Enough?
With a reported budget exceeding $200 million, the pressure is on. F1 needs a robust hold in Week 2 and beyond to achieve breakeven and profitability. A $150 million opening weekend would set a solid foundation, but long-term success will hinge on repeat viewership and international momentum.
