Does It Hold Up?

BOX OFFICE 2025 & 2026

Every year we take guesses at what some of the most anticipated movies of the year will make at the domestic box office. 2025 was no different. So let's take a look back and see how well (and in some cases how poorly) we did for the year.
But that's not all. After we wrap up 2025, we give you our best predictions for 20 movies coming out the first half of 2026. Hope you enjoy the ride.
