The Apple Original Film has now crossed the $500 million mark at the global box office, with the running total now standing around $509 million.<\/p>\n<p>F1: The Movie will <a href=\"https:\/\/tinyurl.com\/getappletvplus\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">eventually land on Apple TV+<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/9to5mac.com\/2025\/07\/04\/f1-movie-when-stream-apple-tv\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">likely in October<\/a>. But Apple and distributor Warner Bros. have little incentive to hurry along the secondary release windows if the cinema takings remain as strong as they are.<\/p>\n<p>So far, the film has taken in about $165 million in the United States and $344 million internationally. In another week, it <a href=\"https:\/\/9to5mac.com\/2025\/06\/29\/f1-movie-box-office-opening-weekend-apple-tv\/?extended-comments=1\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">will have outgrossed<\/a> the takings of all previous Apple original films combined.<\/p>\n<p>F1 debuted on June 27, about a month ago, with a $145 million opening weekend. This was above many industry expectations. <\/p>\n<p>While the domestic performance has been somewhat average, the movie has excelled in many international markets. It has been such a success that F1 is getting an IMAX re-release in August, which should propel another boost of ticket sales.<\/p>\n<p>It is currently expected to end its theatrical run above $550 million. As the film was so expensive to make, the break-even point for Apple is probably closer to a $600 million total box office, however. Nevertheless, Apple will be thrilled with the title\u2019s theatrical performance as it gives them a wide awareness crowd-pleaser almost \u2018for free\u2019 for its streaming service catalog.<\/p>\n<p>Apple\u2019s long-term ambitions for cinema movies remains unclear. While it continues to produce a significant number of original movies, it has yet to promise a wide theatrical run for any film on its upcoming slate. Straight-to-streaming is its primary strategy. <\/p>\n<p>For the rest of 2025, for instance, Denzel Washington leads <a href=\"https:\/\/tinyurl.com\/highestlowestappletv\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Highest 2 Lowest<\/a>, which lands on Apple TV+ on September 5, followed by <a href=\"https:\/\/tinyurl.com\/thelostbusappletv\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">The Lost Bus<\/a> starring Matthew McConaughey.<\/p>\n<p class=\"disclaimer-affiliate\">FTC: We use income earning auto affiliate links. <a href=\"https:\/\/9to5mac.com\/about\/#affiliate\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">More.<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/bit.ly\/43RjEnY\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-1004396\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/iMazing_-WWDC25_9to5mac_750x150@2x.webp.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1024\" height=\"205\"\/><\/a>\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The F1 movie continues its hot streak at cinemas, with the film still widely resonating with audience a&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":27695,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[27],"tags":[49,48,75,337],"class_list":["post-27694","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-movies","tag-ca","tag-canada","tag-entertainment","tag-movies"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/27694","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=27694"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/27694\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/27695"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=27694"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=27694"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=27694"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
