Brad Pitt's sports drama F1 has been storming the box office ever since it hit the cinemas. The Joseph Kosinski-directed movie is winning hearts all over the world with superlative box office trends. The movie hit another massive milestone globally on Saturday night.
F1 zooms past the USD 500 million mark globally
Bankrolled by Apple Studios, F1 surpassed the USD 500 million mark at the worldwide box office. Released on June 27, the sports drama took around one month to hit the second half-billion mark for Brad Pitt. Earlier, World War Z achieved this magical milestone and ended up doing USD 540 million globally in its entire run.
Since F1 is now set for IMAX re-release on August 8th, the movie has the potential to clock over USD 550 million to USD 600 million by the end of its theatrical run, becoming the biggest grosser of Brad Pitt's career.
Box Office collections of F1 so far:
F1 turns second highest grossing Original movie post COVID era
Standalone movies are facing it tough to strike a chord with the audience in the post-pandemic era. All the big money spinners are either sequels, prequels, or have a strong IP behind them. Breaking all the odds, F1 turned the second-highest-grossing original movie in the last 5 years from Hollywood, after Christopher Nolan's Oppenheimer.
With over USD 975 million lifetime cume, Oppenheimer is currently the highest-grossing standalone movie in the post-COVID era. Though the Brad Pitt starrer will not end up much close to Oppenheimer's glorious run, it still has broken all the existing records for Apple Studios.
For the unversed, F1 is the first Apple Studios movie to clock over the USD 300 million mark, the USD 400 million mark, and the USD 500 million mark at the worldwide box office. It still has the potential to gain traction in the coming weeks and end up hitting another milestone of the USD 600 million mark.
The movie is performing insanely well in the international markets, especially in China and Korea. Even in India, the Joseph Kosinski directorial has found love and appreciation from the audience and emerged as a blockbuster success, hitting over Rs 100 crore gross mark.

Suniel Shetty under fire over ‘wife should take care of kids' comment

Actor Suniel Shetty has once again landed himself in controversy after making remarks about the division of responsibilities between husbands and wives. The actor implied that if a husband is focused on building his career, the wife should, in turn, take primary responsibility for raising the child, a view that has sparked considerable backlash on social an interview with Pinkvilla, Shetty said: "Aaj kal bachchon mein patience hai hi nahi. Shaadi kuch time ke baad ek samjhauta hota hai, where you have to understand each other, live for each other.' (These days, children have no patience. Marriage, over time, becomes a compromise where both partners must understand and support one another.)advertisementHe went on to add, "Phir ek bacchha aata hai, aur patni ko yeh jaanna zaruri hai ki husband career banayega toh bachche ko main dekh rahi hoon. Husband, of course, saath mein dekhega. Par aaj kal sab cheezon mein pressure bohot ho gaya hai.' (When a child arrives, the wife needs to realise that if the husband is focused on building his career, she should be the one to primarily care for the child. Of course, the husband will also be involved, but there's a lot of pressure in everything nowadays.) His comments haven't gone down well with fans, many of whom have expressed their disapproval on social media. One user remarked, 'He needs to stop talking,' while another wrote, 'Bhai apni image khud hee kharab kar raha hai (Brother is ruining his image himself) Sometimes being quiet is the wisest thing. Doesn't their PR team advise them? Or even people around them?'Others criticised his mindset as being out of touch, with one user commenting, 'Don't be fooled by his appearance or the roles he plays — Suniel is over 60 and shares the same outdated thinking as many from his generation, including his contemporaries.'Another person wrote, "After the whole 'natural birth warrior' saga, here he is again with a textbook example of male chauvinism. Honestly, he should just stop talking." One social media user even labelled the actor's comments as 'unacceptable.'Professionally, Suniel Shetty is currently appearing in 'Hunter 2' on Amazon MX Player, reprising his role as ACP Vikram Sinha, who sets out on a dangerous mission to rescue his kidnapped daughter.- EndsTrending Reel

Brad Pitt's ‘F1' races past $500 million mark, becomes Apple Studios' biggest box office hit

After just over a month in theaters, F1 — the Formula One-themed drama starring Brad Pitt — has crossed $509 million at the global box office, making it one of the most successful original films of the last decade. Directed by Joseph Kosinski (Top Gun: Maverick), the film is now poised to challenge Pitt's all-time highest-grossing film, World War Z ($531 million). F1 has earned $165 million domestically and $344 million from international markets. With a reported production budget of $300 million — a figure Kosinski has disputed — the film stands as Apple Studios' most profitable theatrical venture to date. It has outperformed the studio's previous releases, including Napoleon ($223 million) and Killers of the Flower Moon ($158 million). The film opened in late June with a $146 million global debut and has maintained momentum despite strong summer competition. Its premium screen rollout and strong overseas response, especially in racing-obsessed markets, helped drive box office success. F1 has been granted an additional theatrical run in China, likely pushing its total even higher in the coming weeks. This is only the second time Pitt has crossed the $500 million threshold in his career, a notable milestone given his selective approach to large-scale franchise films. F1 now ranks among his top five highest-grossing titles. Also starring Kerry Condon, Damson Idris, and Javier Bardem, discussions about a sequel are reportedly underway, and rumors of a crossover with Tom Cruise's Days of Thunder have begun circulating.
