🇺🇸 ‘Brave New World’ Surpasses $150M in U.S., $300M Worldwide
📅 Updated: March 2, 2025: Marvel Studios’ ‘Captain America: Brave New World’ has crossed $150 million at the U.S. box office and $300 million globally despite mixed reviews and a B- CinemaScore—the lowest for any MCU film to date.
However, after a strong opening weekend, the film saw a steep second-week drop, raising concerns about its long-term prospects at the box office.
🎥 Box Office Breakdown: Hit or Miss?
| Region | Box Office Earnings |
|---|---|
| U.S. Domestic | $150M+ |
| Worldwide Total | $300M+ |
| Production Budget | $180M (Reported) |
| Estimated Budget (Including Reshoots & Marketing) | $300M+ |
With a huge production and marketing cost, ‘Brave New World’ will need a strong third weekend to break even and avoid being labeled an MCU flop.
🛡️ What’s Working for ‘Brave New World’?
✔ Star Power: Anthony Mackie as the new Captain America, Harrison Ford as President Thaddeus Ross, and Giancarlo Esposito in a mystery role.
✔ MCU Brand Loyalty: Despite the lukewarm response, die-hard Marvel fans continue to support the franchise.
✔ Red Hulk Factor: The Harrison Ford-led Red Hulk transformation has intrigued fans, keeping the buzz alive.
⚠️ Challenges Ahead
❌ Sharp Drop in Week 2 – A steep decline in ticket sales after the opening week could spell trouble for profitability.
❌ Mixed Reviews & Low Audience Score – A B- CinemaScore is the worst ever for an MCU film.
❌ Box Office Competition – Facing competition from Dune: Part Two, Wicked, and other major releases could slow its momentum.
📌 Final Verdict: Can It Recover?
While ‘Brave New World’ is not a total disaster, its future remains uncertain. To avoid major losses, the film will need a strong third-week hold and a solid performance in international markets.
