‘Now You See Me 3’ Tops Global Box Office With $75.5 Million, ‘Demon Slayer’ Hits $730 Million, ‘One Battle After Another’ Crosses $200 Million

Lionsgate’s “Now You See Me: Now You Don’t” swiped the top spot on global box office charts with $75.5 million. The film, which also took first place in the domestic marketplace, earned $54.2 million internationally from 64 territories.

Released nearly a decade after the previous entry in the series, the third “Now You See Me” performed well with foreign ticket buyers. Some of the highest-grossing territories include China ($19.2 million), South Korea ($3.9 million), France ($3.5 million) and the U.K. ($3.2 million). Ruben Fleischer directed “Now You See Me: Now You Don’t” and the film brought back franchise mainstays Jesse Eisenberg, Woody Harrelson, Isla Fisher and Dave Franco as a band of Robin Hood-like illusionists. The movie cost $90 million to produce.

Sony’s “Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba Infinity Castle” opened in China with a hefty $52.4 million debut. It now ranks as the fifth highest-grossing film of 2025, having earned nearly $730 million.

Paramount’s “The Running Man,” an R-rated adaptation of Stephen King’s dystopian novel, collapsed at the global box office. After stumbling with a $17 million domestic launch, the film eked out an international gross of $11.2 million from 58 international markets. That’s a disastrous result given “The Running Man’s” $110 million budget. The film was directed by Edgar Wright, who previously helmed “Baby Driver” and “Shaun of the Dead,” and stars Glen Powell. Top markets for “The Running Man” included the U.K. ($3.3 million), Germany ($1.1 million) and Australia ($1 million).

And Warner Bros.’ “One Battle After Another” crossed the $200 million mark at the global box office after earning another $1.4 million internationally. The thriller was directed by Paul Thomas Anderson and stars Leonardo DiCaprio, Sean Penn and Chase Infiniti. It earned some of the year’s best reviews, but its $140 million budget makes it one of 2025’s bigger flops. Theater owners keep half of ticket sales, and Warner Bros. spent tens of millions on top of production costs to market the picture, putting it deeply in the hole.
