SINNERS Box Office Continues To Surpass Expectations, Now Aiming for $400 Million+ Worldwide

If Ryan Coogler’s Sinners keeps its strong momentum, box office experts say the R-rated horror hit could scare up over $400 million worldwide.

At this point, can anything slow down Sinners? Even with Thunderbolts* out, Coogler's hit film raked in another $43M+ worldwide!

The film is a clear example that even the experts sometimes get it wrong, as there were questions about the film's profitability during its first weekend of release.

Another fact in the film's favor is that it will be returning to IMAX theaters after Thunderbolts* concludes its two-week run on the specialty format screens.

If Sinners continues to post minimal week-to-week drop-offs, it's on pace to end its theatrical run just shy of—or possibly surpassing—the $400 million global mark.

That’s a remarkable turnaround, especially given early industry chatter suggesting the R-rated horror film, with its $90 million production budget, wouldn’t be profitable despite glowing reviews.

With a breakeven point estimated around $230 million, Sinners is now poised to leave that figure far behind.

Touted as the first must-see film of 2025, Sinners continues to exceed expectations, with its final box office total still difficult to pin down as it defies traditional trends. 

About Sinners:
The night belongs to sinners. Only in theaters April 18.

Trying to leave their troubled lives behind, twin brothers (Jordan) return to their hometown to start again, only to discover that an even greater evil is waiting to welcome them back.

“You keep dancing with the devil, one day he’s gonna follow you home.”

Written and directed by Academy Award-nominated filmmaker Coogler, “Sinners” stars Jordan in a dual role, joined by Oscar nominee Hailee Steinfeld, Jack O’Connell, Wunmi Mosaku , Jayme Lawson, Omar Miller, Miles Caton, and Delroy Lindo. 

The film is produced by Zinzi Coogler, Sev Ohanian and Ryan Coogler. The executive producers are Ludwig Göransson, Will Greenfield and Rebecca Cho. 

Coogler’s behind-the-camera artisans include his “Black Panther” franchise collaborators: director of photography Autumn Durald Arkapaw, Oscar-winning production designer Hannah Beachler, editor Michael P. Shawver, Oscar-winning composer Ludwig Göransson, and Oscar-winning costume designer Ruth E. Carter.

It hadn't made a profit so Warner Bros. ordered for it to be re-released in IMAX.

@MakeAmericaGrea

90 mil budget. 2.5x rule of thumb would put it 225 mil to be profitable.

It’s on track to hit 400 mil. So, again, you’re [frick]ing stupid. Sinners is a huge success and is about to get another blank check to make whatever movie he wants.

@MakeAmericaGrea - Aww, sweetie…

Does the movie directed by the black dude, starring black people scare you? Does it make you feel less-than? Small? Weak?

It will all be okay, precious. There, there. You are still the most special, best boy. People like you. You are intelligent, witty, popular, insightful, and charming. Nothing will ever change that.

@Kadara - I think reading is very hard for him and the rest of MAGA. Trump loves the uneducated, they can't see past their red hats so a coloured person with intelligence and success is the literal devil for them. I'm glad he's tanking the economy and making their lives harder but the great thing about a cult is that they will continue to suffer until it's too late and it goes the way of Jones town. More power to them

@regularmovieguy -

Did you factor is marketing costs?

Are you saying it hasn't made a profit?

If your parents are so smart and kind, why do you act like such an ignorant bully, telling people they're ****ing stupid?

Your parents definitely did something wrong while raising you.

Woah, V for Vagiener, dropping racial slurs.

It's a bit rich claiming conservatives are ignorant.

How many lefties can't find their own country on a globe?

How many communists don't know which century the American Revolution was in?

President Trump is not tanking the economy.

He is making it take a brief dip, so it will come back stronger than liberals made it.

@Kadara - so glad to watch the Cons lose a 20 pt lead, PP lose his seat and then make another MP (a conservative stronghold) give up his seat LOL the hypocrisy of it all is truly beautiful. Cried that MC was an unelected PM and now he will be opposition leader off of a gifted seat. Great way to give liberals a majority in the next election.

How old are you dude? Do you want me to coddle you every time you say something blatantly stupid?

And yea, genius, the 2.5 rule factors in marketing. It’s not apples to apples and not perfect but the general rule of thumb for box office profitability is 2.5x the production budget. This is even less reliant if the movie is domestically a box office hit.

I don’t know you. What I have seen from you tells me you’re probably a lonely guy who doesn’t socialize much outside of screaming at the clouds telling people to boycott Disney.

You clearly have no critical thinking skills.

My parents were so abusive they paid for my college education, gave me a great home in a good area to grow up in, drove me to and fro any sporting events I had, came to every lacrosse game I played in college, etc.

Yeah dude my parents abused the shit out of me. Nothing gets past you. 💀💀💀
