Red Onepremiered on Prime Videomore than a week ago now, but that hasn’t stopped the biggest Christmas action movie of the year from finding continued success at the box office. Despite being available to watch from the comfort of home,Red Onehauled in another $1 million at the box office the weekend of December 20, bringing itsdomestic total to $95 million. Pair this with $86 million andRed Onehas earned $181 million worldwide, a respectable total that would be a decent profit if not for the troublesome production reported byThe Wrapearlier this year that led to a whopping $250 million budget. The film starsDwayne JohnsonandChris Evans, as well asJ.K. Simmonsas a jacked Santa Claus andLucy Liuas a secret agent.
Despite its hefty budget and early streaming premiere,Red Oneis still one of the top 25 highest-grossing movies of the year domestically, sitting comfortably in the #22 spot ahead ofLonglegs(Nicolas Cage) andThe Fall Guy(Ryan Gosling), but still behindAlien: Romulus(Cailee Spaeny) andGhostbusters: Frozen Empire(Paul Rudd).Red Onealso found enough success at the box office to become the highest-grossing Amazon MGM movie ever passingJason Statham’sThe Beekeeper, the action thriller from directorDavid Ayerthat also released this year. After debuting in theaters on the weekend of November 15 to $32 million,Red Onefell 59% during its second weekend to $13 million, then proceeded to drop only 4% during its third weekend to $12 million, almost unheard of in the modern era of box office struggles and success.
