The Odyssey Needs $625-750 Million to Break Even as Reviews Hit 96%

Summary
$625 million to $750 million in global ticket sales is the estimated break-even range for The Odyssey after a reported $250 million budget and $125 million marketing spend.
A 96% Rotten Tomatoes score has strengthened early box-office expectations, with the R-rated film tracking for an $85 million to $100 million domestic debut and at least $200 million worldwide.
That target is steep for an R-rated release, but Christopher Nolan's recent record offers support: Oppenheimer reached $960 million globally, while only one of his films since 2006 finished below $500 million.
Spider-Man: Brand New Day arrives July 31 as the first major competition, though differing audience appeal and ratings could let The Odyssey sustain momentum if general audiences respond strongly.
