Timothée Chalamet's 'Marty Supreme' Is Officially A24's Highest-Grossing Movie of All Time

Summary

• Marty Supreme has surpassed Everything Everywhere All at Once to become A24’s highest-grossing film in history
• The Josh Safdie-directed sports drama, starring Timothée Chalamet and Gwyneth Paltrow, has grossed $148.4 million USD globally
• Driven by strong word-of-mouth and Oscar buzz, the film’s performance justifies A24’s biggest budget gamble to date ($70 million USD)

A24 has a new box office champion. As of Monday, Marty Supreme has officially crossed the $148 million USD mark at the global box office, overtaking the Academy Award-winning Everything Everywhere All at Once ($141 million USD) to become the indie studio’s highest-grossing release of all time. The milestone validates A24’s pivot toward larger-budget, star-driven projects, with the Josh Safdie-directed ping pong biopic proving that an original, R-rated character study can still command blockbuster numbers in a franchise-heavy landscape.

The film’s commercial success is anchored by a career-defining performance from Timothée Chalamet, whose portrayal of the eccentric table tennis pro Marty Reisman has made him the frontrunner for Best Actor this awards season. Since its wide expansion on Christmas Day 2025, the film has displayed remarkable staying power, holding a spot in the domestic top five for seven consecutive weeks. Audiences have reportedly flocked to see the film’s kinetic, high-stakes matches and the much-hyped return of Gwyneth Paltrow, who delivers a scene-stealing performance as Chalamet’s on-screen mentor.

Financially, Marty Supreme represented a significant risk for A24. With a reported production budget of $70 million USD — the most expensive in the studio’s history—the film needed to perform like a major studio release to turn a profit. It has done just that, grossing $95 million USD in North America and adding another $53.4 million USD from international territories. Analysts point to the film’s viral marketing campaign, which leaned heavily into the “cool factor” of 1950s ping pong culture and Chalamet’s global stardom, as key drivers of its theatrical longevity.

The record-breaking performance sets the stage for a potentially historic night at the upcoming Oscars, where the film is nominated for nine awards, including Best Picture and Best Director. With a theatrical release in China scheduled for late March, industry insiders expect the final gross could climb as high as $170 million USD, setting a bar for A24 that may stand for years to come. Marty Supreme is currently playing in theaters worldwide and is expected to arrive on digital platforms in late March.
