Kirsten Dunst as Lee Smith, staring out a car window, in Civil War.
The Big Picture Designed as A24’s first major box office play, writer-director Alex Garland’s Civil War is living up to expectations. The dystopian action film has already cracked the studio’s all-time top 10 list in less than one week of release. At this rate, Civil War is all but certain to conclude its run as one of the biggest A24 movies of all time, if not the biggest.
The movie currently trails only The Iron Claw, Hereditary, Talk to Me, Uncut Gems, and the number one A24 movie of all time, the multiple Oscar-winning genre mashup Everything Everywhere All at Once, which grossed $77 million domestically a couple of years ago. Civil War, which follows a group of war journalists on a cross-country journey towards Washington to cover a brewing insurrection, was produced on a reported budget of $50 million — the biggest ever for an A24 movie.
Next, Garland will reunite with Boyle for a trilogy of follow-ups to 28 Days Later and 28 Weeks Later. Starring Kirsten Dunst, Jesse Plemons, Cailee Spaeny, Wagner Moura, Nick Offerman, Stephen McKinley Henderson and Sonoya Mizuno, Civil War is currently playing in theaters. Stay tuned to Collider for more updates.
