Overview
- F1 crossed the $300 million mark in global box office receipts by early July, making it Apple’s highest-grossing theatrical release to date.
- IMAX screenings contributed roughly 20% of its worldwide cume—about $60 million—and accounted for a quarter of its North American earnings, highlighting the film’s premium format leverage.
- Key international markets have shown robust holds, with the film earning over ₹50.7 crore net in India within 11 days and surpassing $23 million in China over the same period.
- The production budget is estimated between $200 million and $300 million, with a marketing spend near $100 million, elevating the film’s break-even threshold significantly.
- Revenue splits with theaters and Warner Bros. mean that despite strong ticket sales, true profitability will depend on continued global momentum and sustained box office performance.
