Captain America: Brave New World earned about $415.1 million worldwide, according to The Numbers. That is roughly $9.9 million below a reported $425 million theatrical break-even estimate. The comparison suggests the film likely missed that theatrical benchmark, but it does not establish a final net loss: box-office gross is not the studio’s take, and public sources do not disclose the film’s complete costs or later revenues.
How much did Captain America: Brave New World make?
The Numbers lists worldwide ticket sales of $415,101,577, including $200,500,001 domestic. These are box-office grosses, not the amount Disney or Marvel received after exhibitors’ shares and distribution arrangements.

The Numbers lists a $180 million production budget. The Associated Press also described the production price tag as $180 million and noted that it excluded marketing and promotion. That budget figure therefore cannot be treated as the film’s all-in cost.
Did the film reach its reported break-even point?
A reported $425 million theatrical break-even estimate places the worldwide gross about $9.9 million below the benchmark. The estimate is attributed in secondary reporting; it is not a studio-published or audited break-even figure. On the available numbers, the careful conclusion is that the film likely fell short of the reported theatrical target.
#1 Best Overall
- As he takes on the mantle of Captain America, Sam Wilson soon finds himself in the middle of an international incident. In a race against time, Sam must unravel a nefarious global plot before the true mastermind has the entire world seeing red. Warning: Some flashing-lights scenes in this film may affect photosensitive viewers.
That shortfall is a comparison between worldwide ticket sales and an estimated threshold, not a calculation of final profit or loss. The $415.1 million gross does not all flow to the studio, and the available figures do not establish full marketing and distribution costs, final theatrical settlements, or film-specific revenue from streaming, home entertainment, and licensing. No verified Disney or Marvel statement giving the film’s final net result is available in the cited sources.
What do the opening and second weekend show?
The Numbers lists an opening weekend of $88,842,603. The Associated Press reported an estimated North American opening of $88.5 million for the holiday weekend of February 14–16, 2025, then an estimated $28.2 million in the second weekend; the film remained No. 1 in its second frame.

Warning: Some flashing-lights scenes in this film may affect photosensitive viewers.
Those reports indicate a substantial second-weekend drop. They do not establish that reviews, the Red Hulk’s reception, or any single controversy caused the film’s overall box-office result. AP quoted Comscore senior media analyst Paul Dergarabedian saying, “The superhero genre has taken a hit over the past few years, but audiences still have a huge interest in seeing them on the big screen.” That is industry context, not a finding about the cause of this film’s performance.
Why box-office gross does not settle profitability
- Ticket sales are not studio revenue. The worldwide gross records ticket purchases; theaters retain a share under distribution arrangements.
- The production budget is not the full cost. The reported $180 million excludes marketing and promotion, and the cited sources do not provide a complete film-level cost statement.
- The break-even figure is an estimate. The $425 million threshold is reported in secondary coverage, not confirmed as an official studio accounting figure.
- Later income is not quantified here. Streaming, digital and disc sales, and licensing could affect lifetime returns, but no reliable film-specific amounts are established in the available sources.
For those reasons, “likely below the reported theatrical break-even estimate” is supportable; “confirmed to have lost money” is not.

- Steve Rogers wields the shield in Captain America: The First Avenger, Captain America: The Winter Soldier and Captain America: Civil War.

Release and home-viewing context
Disney’s press kit gives the theatrical release date as February 14, 2025, and names Julius Onah as director, with Kevin Feige and Nate Moore as producers. The Associated Press described the story as a transition for the Captain America role to Anthony Mackie’s Sam Wilson, with Harrison Ford as a co-star.
Disney UK lists Disney+ viewing and purchase formats including DVD, Blu-ray, and digital download on its film page. Availability and editions can vary by territory; that listing does not establish current stock at any particular retailer or the film’s home-entertainment revenue.
