Tron: Ares Box Office Stalls Around $133 Million Worldwide After Three Weeks

The sci‑fi sequel remains far from recouping its reported $180–$220 million cost.

Overview

  • Disney’s franchise entry has reached about $133 million globally since its October 10 release, according to the latest tallies.
  • Even using the lower reported budget, conventional break‑even models suggest the film would need far higher grosses than its current pace.
  • Critical response remains lukewarm at roughly 53% on Rotten Tomatoes, a result that has not translated into strong box‑office legs.
  • The film is still about $5 million shy of John Carter’s lifetime domestic total, highlighting the depth of its shortfall.
  • Its soft run comes during one of the weakest Octobers for theaters since 1997, with around $425 million in monthly ticket sales.
