The Oscars race is well and truly in full gear, and the fight for supremacy in the Best Actor category is one of the most fascinating in recent memory. After taking home gold at the recent Golden Globe ceremony, Timothée Chalamet has perhaps now edged into poll position against the chasing pack, consisting of the likes of Wagner Moura for The Secret Agent, Michael B. Jordan for Sinners, and Leonardo DiCaprio for One Battle After Another. As the titular Marty Supreme, Chalamet delivers an electric, unmissable performance soaked in the flaws of a sports prodigy’s heavy ego, and fans have been flocking in by the millions to catch it.
In fact, so popular has Marty Supreme been that it has now officially become the second-highest-grossing A24 movie in U.S. box office history, overtaking the brilliant Alex Garland‘s Civil War in the process. Last weekend, Marty Supreme earned another $7.6 million in domestic box office revenue, finishing sixth in the rankings. This helped take the movie’s global gross to $78 million, with almost all of this coming from domestic earnings, as many regions, such as Australia, await its debut. With that in mind, continued success for Marty Supreme is all but guaranteed, and the $7 million needed to take top spot on the aforementioned list is a gap sure to be bridged.
Marty Supreme was available in fewer theaters than all the top eight across last weekend’s domestic box office, yet still finished in sixth. Two new arrivals to the theatrical slate outperformed the ping pong flick, namely Resident Evil: Welcome to Raccoon City director Johannes Roberts‘ Primate and the Gerard Butler-led Greenland 2: Migration, with James Cameron‘s Avatar: Fire and Ash once again topping the charts.
‘Marty Supreme’ Is a Critical Hit
With a “certified fresh” 93% from critics and 82% from audiences on review aggregator Rotten Tomatoes, Marty Supreme is one of the best-received movies of the past twelve months. On the review site, the critics’ consensus reads, “Serving up Timothée Chalamet at his most infectiously charismatic, Marty Supreme is a propulsive epic that realizes its sky-high aspirations even while it critiques its indelible hero’s toxic ambition.” In Ross Bonaime‘s review for Collider, he awarded the film an 8/10, calling it, “one of the most exciting and engaging films you’ll see all year.”
