The Odyssey North America Box Office: Just A 4% Jump Away From Beating Deadpool & Wolverine As The Biggest R-Rated Movie — Can It Pull It Off?

Fresh film debuts have pushed The Odyssey out of the North American top five, a position it is expected to maintain through the weekend. While the Christopher Nolan-directed epic stands as the highest-grossing R-rated film globally of all time, it still trails *Deadpool & Wolverine* for the domestic R-rated crown. Read on for the full breakdown.

How much has the film collected so far at the North American box office?

Box Office Mojo reports that the mythological epic brought in $1.04 million domestically on its 11th Friday. This marks a 23.5% drop from the previous Friday, despite shedding 525 theater locations on Thursday. These figures bring the movie’s total North American earnings to $613.9 million, with projections pointing toward a domestic three-day weekend haul between $3 million and $4 million.

Here’s how much the film needs to beat Deadpool & Wolverine?

According to Box Office Mojo, Deadpool & Wolverine remains the top-earning R-rated movie in North America, holding onto the #1 spot. For comparison, the Ryan Reynolds and Hugh Jackman vehicle finished its domestic run with a lifetime gross of $636.7 million.

The Odyssey still has ground to cover to overtake *Deadpool & Wolverine* domestically, sitting roughly $23 million away from claiming the title of highest-grossing R-rated movie in North America. Although the Christopher Nolan picture is showing impressive theatrical endurance, the influx of new competition makes closing that gap a challenging endeavor.

More about the movie

International ticket sales for The Odyssey have crossed the $1.11 billion threshold. The feature is closing in on *Zootopia 2* globally as it vies to secure the 10th-highest-grossing film spot of all time. Should the Christopher Nolan movie pull ahead of the Pixar hit, it will secure a place in the all-time top 10 list. Starring Matt Damon, Anne Hathaway, and Tom Holland, *The Odyssey* debuted on July 17.
