After a 91-day run in theaters, Ryan Coogler’s Sinners has officially exited the North American box office, but not without making history on its way out.
The psychological horror film, starring Michael B. Jordan in a chilling and transformative lead role, has grossed $278.57 million domestically, making it the 10th-highest-grossing R-rated film of all time in North America. It also surpassed the box office total of The Hangover ($277.33 million), a feat that solidifies Sinners as one of the season’s biggest and perhaps most unexpected box office success stories.
While Sinners debuted to solid expectations, few could have predicted the staying power it would display throughout the spring and summer. Its gripping narrative, slow-burn tension, and raw performances fueled consistent interest and word-of-mouth momentum, helping it hold strong against blockbuster competition.
At the global level, Sinners amassed a $365.87 million worldwide, with $87.3 million coming from international markets.
That performance places Sinners not only among the top 10 R-rated films domestically but also makes it the third-highest-grossing horror film of all time, trailing only behind It (2017) and The Sixth Sense (1999).
While the film’s theatrical run has ended, Sinners is expected to find new life through digital and physical release platforms later this year, potentially reaching even wider audiences intrigued by its blend of horror, psychological drama, and social commentary.
