Marty Supreme has climbed to record-setting box office heights, becoming the most financially successful film in A24’s history as it continues to play in theaters worldwide. The period sports drama, directed by Uncut Gems filmmakers and starring Timothée Chalamet, has grossed about $147 million globally, eclipsing the previous franchise champion, Everything Everywhere All at Once, which held A24’s top earnings for years.
Released by A24 on December 25, 2025 following a limited festival premiere, Marty Supreme opened wide over the Christmas period and was an early hit in North America before expanding internationally. The film’s domestic tally sits near $93 million, with roughly $54 million coming from overseas markets so far. Its consistent box office performance has upended expectations for an original, adult-oriented film in a market dominated by franchise sequels and tentpole blockbusters.
Analysts attribute Marty Supreme’s commercial strength to Chalamet’s star power, spirited word-of-mouth, and the film’s awards season momentum — it has attracted nominations from major guilds and critics groups alike. Its success marks a notable pivot for A24, which historically built its reputation on modestly budgeted, critically acclaimed titles rather than large global box office hauls. The film’s reported production budget of around $70 million also makes it the studio’s most expensive project to date, raising stakes on its theatrical performance.
The title continues to expand internationally. A planned theatrical release in China through local partners aims to drive further revenue in one of the world’s largest markets, where Hollywood fare often posts significant numbers when permitted wide distribution.
Industry watchers note that while Marty Supreme now tops A24’s global box office chart, its earnings-to-budget ratio currently trails some previous studio successes that earned strong grosses on smaller budgets. Still, the film’s position atop A24’s all-time list reflects shifting dynamics in independent film distribution and audience appetite for star-driven narratives outside conventional franchise frameworks.
