‘Alien: Romulus’ Just Became the Highest Grossing Horror Movie of All Time in IMAX Theaters

The Alien franchise is back under the big screen with Alien: Romulus, which is currently the highest grossing horror movie of the year with $101 million made here in the United States and $331 million scared up worldwide. The film is still going strong at the box office with no at-home release announced at this time, and in fact Romulus just passed another huge milestone.

IMAX has announced today that Alien: Romulus is now IMAX’s highest grossing horror of all time at the global box office, with $40 million in ticket sales for IMAX theaters alone.

The production budget for Alien: Romulus was a reported $80 million, relatively low for a franchise movie of this size and scale, so it’s turning a big time profit at the box office.

The highest grossing movie in the franchise to date remains Ridley Scott’s prequel Prometheus with $403.3 million in 2012, while follow-up Alien: Covenant ended its run with $240.8 million in 2017. Alien: Romulus is now the franchise’s second highest grossing film.

In Alien: Romulus, “While scavenging the deep ends of a derelict space station, a group of young space colonizers come face to face with the most terrifying life form in the universe.”
