Tron: Ares Chases Limitless at Global Box Office
1 Nov
Summary
- Tron: Ares has earned $125.4 million worldwide so far
- It trails Bradley Cooper's Limitless by $36.5 million globally
- Tron: Ares is approaching the lifetime earnings of Limitless
As of November 1st, 2025, the latest Tron film, Tron: Ares, has been in theaters for three weeks and has earned $125.4 million worldwide. While this places it among the top 30 highest-grossing films of the year, the movie is still far from recovering its reported $180 million production budget.
Despite its mixed critical reception, with a 53% Rotten Tomatoes score, Tron: Ares has already surpassed the global totals of several popular films. However, it is now approaching the lifetime earnings of a fan-favorite sci-fi hit starring Bradley Cooper and Robert De Niro - the 2011 film Limitless. Currently, Tron: Ares is trailing Limitless by around $36.5 million at the worldwide box office.
Based on its present pace, it seems unlikely that Tron: Ares will be able to overtake Limitless during its ongoing theatrical run. However, it will be interesting to see how close the film can get to that benchmark in the coming days. Among 2025 releases, Tron: Ares is now just behind Mickey 17, the sci-fi dark comedy from Bong Joon‑ho, which has earned $133.3 million worldwide. The final verdict on Tron: Ares' box office performance should be clear in the weeks ahead.
