Teyana Taylor & Leonardo DiCaprio’s Film ‘One Battle After Another’ Faces Massive $100 Million Box Office Loss Despite Critical Praise
Leonardo DiCaprio and Teyana Taylor’s new film “One Battle After Another” is being hailed by viewers but it’s struggling to make its money back.
Directed by Paul Thomas Anderson, the Warner Bros. drama reportedly cost around $130 million to produce and another $70 million to promote. So far, it’s earned about $140 million worldwide, falling short of what’s needed to turn a profit.
“These prestige-type movies have failed to create a sense of FOMO among audiences,” says Fandango box office analyst Shawn Robbins in a statement to Variety. Warner Bros. pushed back on reports of a $100 million loss, saying, “Films across the studio’s slate, including ‘One Battle After Another,’ have achieved financial reward in 2025 with more than $4 billion earned to date.”
Despite the numbers, “One Battle After Another” is generating major Oscar buzz for its emotional storytelling and standout performances by DiCaprio and Taylor.
