Thanks to its current global haul of $41.5 million, Francis Lawrence’s dystopian survival thriller The Long Walk now ranks among the top 50 highest-grossing films of 2025 (per Box Office Mojo). Having already surpassed the $10 million mark internationally, with a tally of $11.5 million, the critically acclaimed film is rapidly approaching the $30 million milestone in North America, with a current domestic total of $29.9 million.
Having already secured a spot in the top 50, The Long Walk recently outperformed several 2025 releases, including The Phoenician Scheme, Nobody 2, Bring Her Back, and M3GAN 2.0. It is now just inches away from surpassing the lifetime global earnings of a Matt Damon-led dark comedy directed by Ocean’s Eleven director Steven Soderbergh. We’re talking about the 2009 film The Informant! Here’s how much more The Long Walk needs to earn to outgross it at the global box office.
