Warner Bros. has recently experienced a remarkable turnaround, showcasing three unexpected blockbuster successes in 2025. The latest addition to this impressive lineup is “Final Destination: Bloodlines,” which has taken the U.S. box office by storm, raking in an astonishing million over the weekend. This figure is mirrored internationally, bringing the film’s total to a striking 2 million worldwide. While it may not appeal to every viewer, it’s clear that younger audiences are flocking to theaters, fulfilling the studio’s primary objective.
Another standout is “A Minecraft Movie,” which has achieved a staggering 8 million in global earnings. The film’s revenue is split 40% from the U.S. and 60% from international markets. Its appeal may puzzle some, but the reality is that children are eagerly lining up to see it. For those over 50, the pronunciation of “Minecraft” might seem like a distant memory, but the enthusiasm of the younger generation speaks volumes.
For a more mature audience, Ryan Coogler’s “Sinners” has emerged as a significant contender, amassing 6 million globally. Starring Michael B. Jordan, this film is poised for recognition during the upcoming awards season. Coogler and Jordan, known for their previous collaborations on “Fruitvale Station,” “Creed,” and the “Black Panther” series, have once again demonstrated their prowess in filmmaking.
The success of these films has sparked envy among Hollywood executives, particularly towards Mike DeLuca and Pam Abdy, who have successfully steered Warner Bros. away from a potential downturn. Prior to the release of this trio of hits, many industry insiders were predicting the executives’ imminent departure, with concerns that Warner Discovery chief David Zaslav might sever ties with them. Now, anticipation builds for the upcoming “Superman” film. If James Gunn’s interpretation of the iconic superhero resonates with audiences, Warner Bros. could find itself enjoying a prosperous year ahead.
