Fast & Furious' box office performances have been getting worse for the past 6 years, and given Fast X's inflated budget, it needs to break the trend.
Fast & Furious is one of the biggest movie franchises, but its box office performance has been on a downward spiral, and Fast X needs to fix it. The early movies in the street racing series were hugely successful for the time, with the first two making between $200-250 million. However, when the series went in a brand new direction by shedding its street racing skin and becoming a high-octane action franchise, each movie was a blockbuster hit.
Every Fast & Furious Movie Box Office Performance Has Gotten Worse Since Furious 7 Following the phenomenal success of Furious 7, every movie in the franchise has made less than its predecessor. Two years after Furious 7, The Fate of the Furious was theatrically released and grossed $1.23 billion. That's still an incredible feat for a franchise that started as a crime drama about thugs stealing DVD players, but an almost $200 million drop is still steep.
Why Has The Fast & Furious Box Office Performances Been Getting Worse? There is a clear spike in the franchise's box office gross with Furious 7, as every previous and following movie's gross is significantly lower. And the most obvious reason for that spike is Paul Walker. The actor played Brian O'Conner, the series' real hero.
Fast X Could Break The Box Office Trend Though the franchise looks like it's stuck in this downward trajectory, Fast X could still bring the series back to its billion-dollar days, or at least close to it. There's a lot of positivity surrounding the 10th movie in the series, especially following two great-looking trailers. Fast X is resonating with fans more than any movie in the franchise since Furious 7, as it's returning to its roots in a big way.
