Chainsaw Man movie grosses $191 million

MAPPA’s “Chainsaw Man – The Movie: Reze Arc” has shifted from theaters to streaming after a run that made it one of the bigger anime film releases tied to a current TV franchise. The movie opened first in Japan on September 19, 2025, then expanded across North America, Europe and other overseas markets in late September and October, according to Crunchyroll and Box Office Mojo. Crunchyroll made the film available for streaming on April 30, 2026, in most territories outside France and Japan, entertainment reports said. ### Why are there two different worldwide grosses? Box Office Mojo lists the film at $162.5 million worldwide, including $43.4 million domestic and $119.1 million international. That total reflects the tracked grosses visible on its title page as of mid-May. Vandal, a Spanish entertainment outlet, reported on May 19 that the theatrical run had ended at $191 million worldwide. (cbr.com) An earlier Vandal report on February 11 had put the film at $175 million when the Crunchyroll streaming window was first announced, suggesting the outlet was describing a later end-of-run total rather than the earlier tracked figure.

Crunchyroll said in a release cited by CBR that the movie would begin streaming worldwide, excluding France and Japan, on April 30, 2026. IGN also reported on April 30 that the film was available to stream on Crunchyroll that day. JustWatch’s U.S. listing, updated May 18, shows the film streaming on Crunchyroll and the Crunchyroll Amazon Channel, while also being available for digital purchase on Amazon Video, Apple TV and Fandango At Home. (vandal.elespanol.com) Prime Video’s Spanish-language listing separately shows the title available to buy for $19.99. ### How strong was the theatrical run before the final tally dispute? (cbr.com) Crunchyroll reported on October 28, 2025 that Sony Pictures Entertainment had put the movie above $100 million worldwide during its early international rollout. That report said the film opened at No. 1 in North America, reached $17.25 million there in its opening weekend, and had made 7.17 billion yen in Japan at the time. (justwatch.com) Box Office Mojo’s market-by-market page shows Japan as the biggest single territory at $68.5 million, followed by South Korea at $24.1 million and the United States and Canada at $43.4 million combined. The site also lists openings across Europe and Latin America, including Mexico, France, Germany, Spain and the United Kingdom. ### What is the movie and who made it? (crunchyroll.com) Crunchyroll describes the film as a continuation of the “Chainsaw Man” story in which Denji meets the mysterious Reze during a war involving demons and hunters. The movie runs 1 hour 39 minutes on Crunchyroll and 1 hour 40 minutes on Box Office Mojo and Prime Video listings, a common difference caused by platform rounding. (boxofficemojo.com) Prime Video lists Tatsuya Yoshihara as director and names Kikunosuke Toya, Reina Ueda and Fairouz Ai among the cast. Crunchyroll’s page says the film is available with multiple dubbed audio tracks and subtitles, including English and Latin American Spanish. ### Where can viewers find it now? Crunchyroll’s listing shows the movie as part of its current catalog in the United States, with subtitled and dubbed options. (crunchyroll.com) U.S. viewers can also buy the film digitally through Amazon Video, Apple TV and Fandango At Home, according to JustWatch. April 30, 2026 was the key handoff date from the theatrical window to subscription streaming. (primevideo.com) The remaining open question is which distributor or reporting service will publish a reconciled final worldwide gross if the $191 million figure becomes the broadly accepted end-of-run total.
