DiCaprio's Latest Film Trails Previous Box Office Flop Despite Outgrossing It

As of November 9th, 2025, Leonardo DiCaprio's latest film, One Battle After Another, has managed to outgross his previous box office flop, the western crime drama Killers of the Flower Moon, directed by Martin Scorsese. However, this feat comes as the new film closes its disappointing theatrical run, marking another underperforming chapter in DiCaprio's recent box office journey.

One Battle After Another, directed by Paul Thomas Anderson, was initially projected to reach the $200 million mark worldwide. But the outcome has fallen far short of that, with the film's worldwide total now sitting at around $193.7 million, including $68.7 million from domestic markets and $125 million from overseas. Given the steep production and marketing costs, estimated to be between $130 and $175 million, the film is expected to lose at least $100 million.

As more new films enter theaters and over 500 screens are dropped across the US, One Battle After Another's presence has narrowed to only 403 theaters. The film's journey has been slow, and on the latest Friday, it brought in a mere $250,000, confirming that it is nearing the end of its big-screen run. While the financial results are disappointing, the film has now officially overtaken Killers of the Flower Moon domestically, with a $68 million box office tally, compared to the Martin Scorsese-directed western crime drama's struggles due to its length, niche appeal, and heavy production costs.
