Predator: Badlands, the seventh installment in the Predator franchise, which premiered in theaters on November 7, 2025, is now in its third week of release. Boasting an 85% Rotten Tomatoes critics’ score and a solid 7.5/10 IMDb rating, Dan Trachtenberg’s latest sci-fi action film has garnered rave reviews from both critics and audiences. On the box office front, it has earned $141.9 million globally, of which $71.7 million has come from North America and the remaining $70.2 million from international markets.
As of now, Badlands ranks among the top 25 highest-grossing titles of 2025 in North America, trailing just behind Tron: Ares’s $73 million domestic earnings, which it is expected to overtake in the next few days, as per Box Office Mojo. After outgrossing several of this year’s popular films, including The Accountant 2 ($65.5 million) and 28 Years Later ($70.4 million) in North America, the sci-fi actioner has also surpassed the domestic total of Leonardo DiCaprio’s acclaimed action thriller One Battle After Another. Let’s take a look at how these two films compare at the box office.
