F1: The Movie just lapped one of Brad Pitt’s most defining films at the box office. From the visionary minds behind Top Gun: Maverick, director Joseph Kosinski and co-writer Ehren Kruger, the new pulse-pounding spectacle stars Brad Pitt as Sonny Hayes, a weathered speedster who is called back to the glamour and grit of Formula One after a 30-year absence to race for the fictional APXGP team.
Since its theatrical debut on June 27, F1: The Movie has dazzled critics and ignited the hearts of audiences alike. Pitt’s magnetic performance pairs seamlessly with Kosinski’s kinetic direction, creating a thunderously intense and wildly thrilling action movie that begs to be seen on the biggest screen possible. F1: The Movie has revved past $395 million globally, and shows little signs of slowing down.
This meteoric success places F1: The Movie among Pitt’s most celebrated works, overtaking cherished тιтles like Tarantino’s Inglourious Basterds ($316M), Se7en ($328M), and The Curious Case of Benjamin ʙuттon ($329M) at the global box office. Now, F1: The Movie has lapped one of the very roles that defined Pitt’s luminous career, continuing its climb up his box office record books.
F1: The Movie Just Pᴀssed The Worldwide Box Office Total Of Once Upon A Time… In Hollywood
Brad Pitt’s 2025 Blockbuster Is Now His 6th Highest-Grossing Movie Ever
With $395 million and counting, F1: The Movie has pᴀssed the worldwide box office total of Once Upon a Time… in Hollywood, which made $377 million in 2019. Right now, F1: The Movie‘s box office breaks down to $138 million domestically and $257 million internationally, while the Quentin Tarantino movie made $142 million domestically and $234 million internationally.
This marks a significant achievement for F1: The Movie since Once Upon a Time… in Hollywood is one of Brad Pitt’s most defining movies. His impossibly cool and charismatic performance as stuntman Cliff Booth finally won him his first Academy Award for Best Supporting Actor after previously being nominated for 12 Monkeys, The Curious Case of Benjamin ʙuттon, and Moneyball.
F1: The Movie is now Brad Pitt’s sixth highest-grossing movie ever, behind Ocean’s Eleven ($450M), Troy ($483M), Mr. and Mrs. Smith ($486M), World War Z ($531M), and ᴅᴇᴀᴅpool 2 ($786M), the last of which he appears in for a split-second blink-and-you’ll-miss-it cameo. If F1: The Movie continues to perform well, it could climb even higher on his list of highest-grossing films.
No matter whether it moves up the list or sits тιԍнт at number six, F1: The Movie is already one of Pitt’s best blockbusters.
It’s possible that F1: The Movie makes an additional $55 million to overtake Ocean’s Eleven in fifth, but making another $33 million after that to overtake Troy seems to be stretching its legs at the box office. No matter whether it moves up the list or sits тιԍнт at number six, F1: The Movie is already one of Pitt’s best blockbusters, both at the box office and in his magnetic performance as Sonny Hayes.
F1: The Movie is playing in theaters.
