Mercy's Box Office Race: Chasing 'Her' Legacy
3 Feb
Summary
- Mercy has earned $40.8 million worldwide in its second weekend.
- The film lags $7.3 million behind Her's global box office total.
- Mercy needs $157.5 million to break even based on its budget.
In its second week of release, the AI-centric sci-fi thriller 'Mercy' has garnered $40.8 million worldwide. While critics have been unimpressed, audience reception remains high. The film currently ranks as the second-highest-grossing movie of 2026, with a global total of $40.8 million.
'Mercy' is now closing in on the box office achievements of 'Her,' a 2013 sci-fi romantic comedy-drama. 'Her' achieved a worldwide total of $48.1 million, meaning 'Mercy' needs an additional $7.3 million to surpass it.
Despite its current performance, 'Mercy' faces a steep climb to profitability. The film's estimated production budget is $63 million, and it would require approximately $157.5 million globally to break even, a figure currently appearing unlikely given its trajectory.
