- The F1 movie needs to make at least $450-$500 million to simply break even, and at least $600-$650 million to be considered a Box office success.
The F1 movie zoomed into theaters at 300 Miles per Hour, and it would be an understatement to say that it lived up to what fans were expecting the film to look like. However, the big question is, with a majority of reviews for the F1 movie being positive, one would expect the F1 movie to do something remarkable with its run on the Box Office. So, with that being said, let’s take a look at the collection the F1 movie has made at the Box Office till now and make an attempt to predict how much it can make as its theatrical run comes to an end.
How Much Did the F1 Movie Make at the Box Office till Now?
As of now, The F1 Movie has managed to collect $140 million Worldwide so far, which is the most money a film has made on its opening run this week, and that’s not it. The F1 Movie has another milestone under its belt. According to a report brought to us by Forbes confirms that the F1 movie has made more money at the Box Office than “Napoleon” ($78.8m in 2023), making the F1 movie the most successful opening weekend Apple Studios has ever seen.
F1 Movie Box Office Collection Prediction
Now, while it is a really good thing that the F1 movie has managed to become Apple Studios’ biggest opening week yet, there is another thing that we need to keep in consideration regarding the F1 Movie. The budget of the F1 Movie is reportedly a whopping 350 million, according to several reports, and it is still a long way from Apple to go just to make a profit. For the F1 movie to be profitable, it will have to generate a revenue of at least $450-$500 million, and to be considered a box office success, the F1 movie will have to make at least $600-$650 Million on the Box Office.
However, considering how well the movie is doing on the big screen worldwide, there is a solid chance that it will easily break even but becoming a Box Office success is a tough achievement to bag. The simple reason behind this assumption is that the F1 movie caters to a rather specific set of people and the ones who are not into Formula 1, might not even bother going to watch the movie.
On the other hand, while the creators have made it clear that one does not need to know a lot about Formula 1 to watch this movie, there is no cure for skepticism, and considering that it will arrive on Apple TV+ sooner or later, this set of people will wait it out.
So, as far as I think, The F1 movie has a chance of making around $450-500 million at its best and if you were expecting it to make big bucks on the Box Office, chances are, you will be disappointed.
