New Horror Movie With 91% RT Score Hits First Major Box Office Milestone

Together has hit a major box office milestone. The new body horror movie, which was written and directed by Michael Shanks, has a Certified Fresh 91% score on Rotten Tomatoes. It stars real-life married couple Alison Brie and Dave Franco as a couple who find their relationship challenged when their bodies begin to meld together in a variety of disgusting ways.

Unusually, the Together release date came midweek, which is a release strategy that happens more often when a holiday weekend is impending. Because it debuted on Wednesday, July 30, the horror movie had already been in theaters for several days by the time its official opening weekend began.

Per ᴅᴇᴀᴅline, as of Saturday morning, Together is projected to earn a 3-day total between $6 and $7 million by the end of Sunday. Regardless of where it lands within that range, Together is set to pᴀss the $10 million domestic milestone by the end of the weekend with its cumulative box office haul.

What This Means For Together

By hitting this domestic milestone, the theatrical release of Together will have already set itself apart among тιтles released by its U.S. distributor, Neon. So far, only eight of the company’s тιтles have hit that benchmark, namely Three Identical Strangers, Immaculate, Ferrari, Anora (which won Best Picture in 2025), I, Tonya, The Monkey, Parasite, and Longlegs.

By grossing $10 million, Together will cement itself as the company’s third highest-grossing horror movie ever at the domestic box office, behind only the Sydney Sweeney religious horror movie Immaculate ($15.7 million domestic), and the Osgood Perkins outings The Monkey ($39.7 million) and Longlegs ($74.3 million).

Our Take On The Together Box Office Milestone

Dave Franco and Alison Brie uncomfortably close together in Together

A gross of $10 million is not particularly high by the standards of a modern blockbuster. In fact, more than five dozen movies have already pᴀssed that domestic milestone in 2025, ranging from Becoming Led Zeppelin ($10.4 million domestic) to A Minecraft Movie ($423.9 million).

However, the reason that this is a major accomplishment for 2025’s Together is the fact that it is a more small-scale тιтle with a reported budget of just $17 million. This means that its goalposts for profitability are much lower than a tentpole movie like Minecraft, which came with a reported price tag of $150 million.

Additionally, this Together milestone represents another win for original horror in 2025. It joins Ryan Coogler’s record-breaking Sinners ($278.6 million) as a тιтle that proves that original movies are still able to compete even in a marketplace flooded with franchise horror тιтles such as Final Destination Bloodlines, I Know What You Did Last Summer, and 28 Years Later.
