Tom Cruise's Mission: Impossible – The Final Reckoning continued to hold steady at the US box office, pulling in USD 27.3 million in its second weekend. Despite the arrival of Karate Kid Legends, the action-espionage thriller remained in the No. 2 spot, proving once again the enduring, albeit slightly injured, appeal of the Mission: Impossible brand and Cruise's unmatched box office power. The film witnessed a 57.3 percent drop from its Memorial Day-aided opening weekend, a better hold than its predecessor, Dead Reckoning Part One, which waned 64.6 percent in the same frame with a smaller USD 19.4 million take. With a current US total of USD 122.6 million, The Final Reckoning is eyeing a domestic take between USD 190 million and USD 210 million. Its second-weekend numbers rank among the top Memorial Day sequels of all time, placing just behind major hits like Top Gun: Maverick (USD 90 million, -28.9 percent) and Lilo & Stitch (USD 63 million, -56.8 percent). The film outperformed legacy titles, including Solo: A Star Wars Story and X-Men: Days of Future Past, despite having fewer screenings, a longer runtime, and the lowest theater count for a Mission: Impossible film since Ghost Protocol. The two aforementioned films had raked in USD 29.4 million and USD 32.6 million, respectively. Directed by Christopher McQuarrie, The Final Reckoning is the final entry in the franchise and a direct sequel to 2023's Dead Reckoning Part One. It features Ethan Hunt and his IMF team in a high-stakes race to stop a rogue AI known as the Entity from unleashing a global catastrophe.

With an estimated budget of USD 300 to USD 400 million, the shooting spanned multiple countries, including England, Malta, Norway, and South Africa. Originally intended to be Dead Reckoning Part Two, the film was retitled The Final Reckoning ahead of its May 2025 release. Following its May 5 world premiere in Tokyo and an out-of-competition May 14 screening at Cannes, the film launched theatrically across the globe on May 23. It has since grossed USD 352 million worldwide to become the eighth highest-grossing film of 2025 by delivering the franchise's biggest opening weekend to date.

Mission Impossible 8 Box Office Day 16: Tom Cruise's Film Bounces Back, Mints Rs 90 Crore
Last Updated: Tom Cruise's Mission: Impossible – Dead Reckoning Part One has grossed Rs 90 crore in India. Directed by Christopher McQuarrie, the film marks Cruise's final outing as Ethan Hunt. Tom Cruise is back to doing what he does best — defying gravity and box office expectations. On Day 16, Mission: Impossible – Dead Reckoning Part One pulled off yet another high-octane stunt at the Indian box office. After a mid-week slowdown, the film has bounced back with style, raking in a cool Rs 90 crore so far. Tom Cruise's Mission Impossible 8 entered the third week in India on a strong note. Directed by Christopher McQuarrie and co-written with Erik Jendresen, Mission: Impossible – The Final Reckoning marks Tom Cruise's final outing as the legendary spy Ethan Hunt. The film also stars Hayley Atwell, Ving Rhames, Simon Pegg, Henry Czerny, and Angela Bassett. The film pocketed Rs 3.65 crore on Day 15 (third Saturday) and followed it up with a slightly better Rs 3.75 crore on Day 16 (third Sunday), according to early estimates. That pushes the total India collection to a solid Rs 90.45 crore across all languages. The final chapter in the Mission: Impossible saga kicked off with a decent run when it hit theatres on May 17. Fans rushed to catch Tom Cruise back in action as Ethan Hunt, pulling off gravity-defying stunts and intense fight scenes like only he can. The film had a strong start, bringing in Rs 54.4 crore in its first week. All eyes are on whether The Final Reckoning can keep up the pace and cruise its way to the Rs 100 crore mark in India. Ahead of the release, Tom Cruise had left Indian fans delighted by speaking in Hindi during a promotional video. 'Main aap sab se bahut pyaar karta hoon. Mujpe bharosa karo, ek akhri baar (I love you all a lot. Trust me one last time)," he said. He also shared his fond memories of visiting India, adding, 'I feel so much love for India. I have to say the whole experience has been etched in my memory. Every single moment. From the moment I landed, going to the Taj Mahal, and spending time in Mumbai, I remember each moment quite vividly." A part of News18's review of the film read, 'But what truly sets The Final Reckoning apart is its tone. It's not just an action blockbuster. It's an elegy. A goodbye. A thank-you. And somehow, despite all the chaos, it's also a reckoning with legacy, with sacrifice, with what it really means to be a hero when the world keeps moving the goalpost. The Final Reckoning is the most fitting, heart-racing, gut-wrenching finale Ethan Hunt could've asked for. If this really is the last mission, then hats off, Mr. Cruise. You didn't just complete it. You aced it." First Published:

'Mission: Impossible – The Final Reckoning' box office collection Day 15: Tom Cruise starrer sees a surge on Saturday; inches towards Rs 90 crore mark in India
Tom Cruise 's Mission: Impossible – The Final Reckoning witnessed a noticeable surge in box office collections on its fifteenth day in Indian theatres, signalling renewed audience interest over the weekend. According to early estimates from industry tracker the action-packed spy thriller earned approximately Rs 3.50 crore (India net) across all languages on Saturday, a significant jump from its estimated Rs 1.75 crore haul on Friday. The film, directed by Christopher McQuarrie , had a robust opening week, collecting Rs 54.4 crore and experienced a sharp dip in the second week, bringing in an estimated Rs 26.75 crore, raising concerns about its long-term momentum. Despite the mid-run slowdown, The Final Reckoning has shown resilience, especially with Saturday's strong performance that indicates the franchise still holds drawing power with Indian audiences. The film's total India net collection now stands at approximately Rs 86.41 crore. The film has been driven primarily by its English-language screenings which alone contributed around Rs 52.1 crore to the overall tally. While the latest instalment is tracking well, it still trails behind its 2023 predecessor, Dead Reckoning Part One, which raked in Rs 98.35 crore within its first two weeks. That said, The Final Reckoning appears to be outperforming Dead Reckoning on comparable days, as Saturday's collections surpass those seen on Day 15 of the previous film's run. With strong weekend momentum, The Final Reckoning is now poised to cross the Rs 90 crore threshold in the coming days. Whether it can reach or surpass the Rs 110.3 crore total earned by Dead Reckoning Part One over a nine-week theatrical run remains to be seen. Featuring an ensemble cast that includes Hayley Atwell , Ving Rhames, Simon Pegg , Henry Czerny, Angela Bassett , and Pom Klementieff , the film is the concluding chapter of the long-running Mission: Impossible franchise. While it continues to draw audiences in India, the global box office performance will be crucial in offsetting its reported $400 million production budget — one of the most expensive in the series' history. As the third weekend progresses, all eyes are on whether the Cruise-led spectacle can maintain its upward trajectory and cement its place as one of the franchise's highest-grossing titles in India.

Directed by Christopher McQuarrie, who also contributed to the screenplay by Erik Jenderson, the movie stars Cruise alongside Hayley Atwell, Ving Rhames, Simon Pegg, Henry Czerny, and Angela Bassett. After delays due to the SAG-AFTRA strike, filming resumed in 2024 and wrapped in November. With a staggering budget estimated between USD 300 and USD 400 million, The Final Reckoning ranks among the most expensive films ever made. It premiered in Tokyo on May 5, screened out of competition at the Cannes Film Festival, and was released theatrically worldwide on May 23. So far, the film has earned USD 227.1 million globally and is the eighth highest-grossing film of 2025. With decent weekday holds and positive audience reception, The Final Reckoning hopes to extend its box office dominance well into the summer.
