Overview
- The film began premium video-on-demand availability on June 30, listed to rent for $19.99 or buy for $24.99 on Amazon Prime Video and Apple TV.
- Box Office Mojo–based reporting puts Obsession’s worldwide haul at about $370.1 million with a domestic cume of $233.9 million, a total that surpassed The Exorcist’s unadjusted domestic figure.
- Obsession was made for roughly $750,000, was picked up out of TIFF by Focus Features, and is produced under the Blumhouse-Atomic Monster banner with Curry Barker as director.
- Trade reports say an executive-producer bonus of about $17 million was paid, a figure described in coverage as reported but not independently verified, and that claim has focused attention on how box-office windfalls are split with cast and crew.
- Industry observers say the title’s run could speed studios’ pursuit of creator-origin filmmakers and prompt changes to theatrical windows and backend deals, and the film’s financial gap between executives and on-set workers has put pressure on negotiations over crew pay.
