Fantastic Four: First Steps Crosses $500 Million Globally, Edges Past Winter Soldier in U.S.

The $505 million haul still points to a near break-even outcome given a roughly $200–225 million budget plus marketing.

Overview

  • In its sixth frame, the film reached about $505.1 million worldwide, including $240.5 million from international markets after a 29% overseas weekend drop.
  • North America is projected to hit roughly $265.8 million through Labor Day, with the title falling to No. 7 for the four-day weekend and exiting the domestic top five.
  • Unadjusted U.S. totals have surpassed Captain America: The Winter Soldier, lifting the film to approximately No. 22 on the MCU’s domestic chart.
  • The theatrical run has been heavily front-loaded, including a roughly 67% second-weekend decline and continued steep week-to-week drops.
  • Trade coverage highlights reliance on post-theatrical revenue to push profitability, with unconfirmed reports suggesting early sequel discussions with director Matt Shakman.
