Building on its $100 million milestone, A24's Oscar-nominated Marty Supreme has surged to $148.8 million globally—surpassing Everything Everywhere All at Once's $142.8 million—with a China release slated for March 20 via China Film Group and Wanda Film. The ping pong drama, directed by Josh Safdie and starring Timothée Chalamet, continues shattering records in international markets amid awards buzz.

Since crossing $100 million in January, Marty Supreme has added significantly to reach a global cume of $148.8 million, eclipsing Everything Everywhere All at Once ($142.8 million) and Timothée Chalamet's A Complete Unknown ($140.5 million). The latest weekend contributed $6.6 million ($5.6 million overseas, $1.03 million domestic), with North America at $92.8 million (A24's best) and international at $56 million.

Standout international earners include the UK ($21 million), Australia ($5.4 million, A24's top there), Italy ($4.8 million, topping Challengers and A Complete Unknown), Mexico ($3 million), Spain ($2.48 million), Poland ($1.9 million), Brazil ($1.43 million), Norway ($1.07 million), and Israel ($867,000).

Recent debuts impressed: Sweden ($270,000, #2 on 139 screens), Hungary/Slovakia ($143,000 on 116 screens), Chile ($127,000 on 115 screens, +41% over Killers of the Flower Moon). Iceland holds its third straight #1.

Next up: France, Benelux, Switzerland, and Denmark this week; China (March 20), Singapore, Thailand, Hong Kong, Indonesia, and Vietnam later in March. Nominations include Best Picture, Director (Safdie), Actor (Chalamet, also producer nod), Cinematography, Editing, Production Design, Casting, Costume Design, and Original Screenplay.

Chalamet shared: “Producing Marty Supreme has been a deeply meaningful experience... I can’t wait for Chinese audiences to experience Marty Supreme.”

The $70 million production faces profitability hurdles from its budget and marketing, but its trajectory remains strong.
