Tron: Ares Nears Box Office Milestone Amidst Flop Year
22 Nov
Summary
- Tron: Ares is projected to surpass Elio's domestic box office earnings.
- The film is expected to result in a studio loss exceeding $130 million.
- Despite its struggles, Tron: Ares is nearing the top 20 grossers of 2025.

"Tron: Ares," starring Jared Leto, is nearing a minor box office milestone by potentially surpassing the domestic gross of the animated film "Elio." This achievement offers a symbolic win for the Disney tentpole, which has been a financial disappointment.
The film, released in October, is anticipated to cause a studio loss exceeding $130 million, facing challenges attributed in part to the SAG-AFTRA strikes. Despite its visual appeal and soundtrack, "Tron: Ares" has struggled commercially, with its domestic total reaching $72.92 million in North America.
Currently ranked 22nd among 2025's highest-grossing films domestically, "Tron: Ares" is less than $1 million away from overtaking "Elio's" $72.98 million haul. This move would bring it closer to breaking into the top 20 grossers for the year, though its overall momentum has significantly waned amidst new competition.
