Project Hail Mary Tops $300M Globally, Becomes Amazon MGM’s Highest-Grossing Film
Space epic Project Hail Mary hits $300M worldwide, sealing Amazon MGM’s top-grossing film status and fueling 2026 box office momentum.
Project Hail Mary has soared past the $300 million milestone globally, pulling in $300.8 million after a $54.1 million weekend haul from 86 markets. The space saga vaults above the previous Amazon MGM record holder, Creed III, which had grossed about $276 million worldwide. The results underscore a powerhouse performance for a film that has become the studio’s marquee release of the year.
Domestically, the movie has already grossed about $164.3 million, with a second-weekend tally of roughly $54.5 million. Those numbers illustrate strong staying power in theaters and broad audience appeal across demographics, even as other titles like Scream 7 push past the $200 million mark in the same period.
Amazon’s acquisition of MGM in 2022 for $8.5 billion now has a clear, tangible box-office victory in hand, with Project Hail Mary shaping up as a long-running earner. As the global rollout continues, analysts anticipate continued momentum in additional markets and formats, cementing this film as a defining hit of the studio’s post-acquisition era.
With fans flocking to theaters for the space epic, executives are watching closely how far the film can stretch its run and whether it helps set a banner year for Amazon MGM at a time when streaming and theatrical strategies are shifting.
