In case you’re fond of watching movies featuring intense fights inside the ring or a cage, there’s good news. A relatively understated MMA film, Beast, is all set to hit U.S. theaters via Lionsgate on April 10, 2026. The film stars Oscar-winning actor Russell Crowe, Luke Hemsworth, and Daniel MacPherson. It remains to be seen how the sports drama performs during its opening weekend in North America and how well it holds through the weekdays and subsequent weekends.
Among modern MMA-centric films, one movie that grabbed the attention of cinephiles was Gavin O’Connor’s Warrior (2011), starring Tom Hardy and Joel Edgerton. However, despite its critical acclaim, the film grossed $13.7 million domestically and $23.3 million worldwide against an estimated $25 million budget. So, it will be interesting to see whether Russell Crowe’s star power can attract audiences to theaters this time for the MMA film Beast.
With that in mind, let’s take a look at what Beast would need to earn at the domestic box office to outgross each of the lowest-grossing films in the Rocky and Creed franchises.
