F1: The Movie finished ahead of Tom Cruise’s Mission: Impossible – The Final Reckoning in the worldwide box-office totals cited here. The Numbers lists F1 at $634,142,436 and The Final Reckoning at $591,353,074—a gap of about $42.8 million. Those are theatrical grosses, not proof of either film’s profit or loss.
How much did F1 make, and how far ahead did it finish?
The Numbers lists F1: The Movie at $634,142,436 worldwide. Its listing for Mission: Impossible – The Final Reckoning gives $591,353,074. The difference is $42,789,362, or roughly $42.8 million. The Numbers’ F1 listing and its Mission: Impossible franchise history provide the comparison; Box Office Mojo independently lists the same worldwide total for F1.

These are reported box-office totals, and database figures can be revised or differ between trackers. They describe ticket sales at the theatrical box office—not the amount a studio ultimately receives.
What does “$300 million misfire” get wrong?
The phrase combines a disputed budget figure with a verdict the available box-office totals cannot establish. The Numbers lists The Final Reckoning’s production budget at $400 million. In May 2025, the Associated Press described the production budgets for the Mission: Impossible films as close to $300 million. Those are different estimates from different sources, not one uncontested figure.

Nor does a worldwide gross below a reported production budget establish a loss. Gross receipts are not studio revenue: the sources cited here do not establish marketing costs, distribution arrangements, theatrical rentals, release expenses, or participation deals. “Misfire” is therefore an editorial characterization, not a demonstrated financial outcome. The budget figures are reported by The Numbers and the Associated Press Cannes report.

Both films had 2025 theatrical releases. F1 began its international theatrical release on June 25, 2025, with its U.S. release on June 27, according to the official film site. The AP reported a $144 million global opening weekend for F1, based on studio estimates—not a final audited figure.

F1’s box-office milestones in 2025
Formula One World Championship Limited said in its 2025 half-year review that F1 had passed $600 million worldwide. At that point, it called the movie the highest-grossing sports film, above Cars 2’s reported $559 million. This is Formula One’s mid-year comparison, not a claim about the all-time ranking today. The 2025 half-year review also described the film as released globally at the end of June.
The AP’s opening-weekend report quoted Warner Bros. distribution chief Jeffrey Goldstein describing campaigns tailored to different parts of the world and emphasizing audience response and word of mouth. That provides context for the release strategy, but it does not by itself establish why the film ultimately outgrossed its rival.
