Captain America: Brave New World Projected to Beat Estimates With $100 Million Domestic Box Office Over Presidents Day Weekend

By AndrewMar 21,2025

Captain America: Brave New World exceeded expectations with a projected $100 million domestic box office opening weekend during the Presidents Day holiday. Comscore estimates the film earned $88.5 million from 4,105 theaters over the three-day weekend, projecting a four-day total of $100 million. Adding the $92.4 million international haul, the global weekend total is estimated at $192.4 million.

Deadline reports the film's production budget was $180 million, with a break-even point estimated at $425 million globally. This strong opening ranks Captain America: Brave New World as the fourth-best Presidents Day launch ever, trailing only Black Panther ($242 million), Deadpool ($152 million), and Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania ($120 million)—all superhero films.

Despite mixed critical reception—IGN gave it a 5/10, noting it "feels neither brave, nor all that new"—the film's box office success is noteworthy. Its performance will be closely watched to determine if it can reverse a recent negative trend for Marvel Cinematic Universe films (excluding last year's successful Deadpool & Wolverine), and build momentum for upcoming releases like Thunderbolts in May and The Fantastic Four: First Steps in July.
