Overview
- The micro‑budget horror Obsession has earned roughly $334 million globally while still in theaters, delivering an extraordinary return on its reported $750,000 production budget.
- Focus Features bought the film after its 2025 Toronto premiere for about $14–15 million and opened it wide in the U.S. on May 15, where the movie posted rare week‑to‑week gains.
- In India, Obsession has collected about Rs 78–79 crore since its May 29 release, surpassing Project Hail Mary to become the top‑grossing Hollywood title in the country so far in 2026.
- Streaming trackers report a premium‑VOD/digital debut on June 30, 2026, but Focus Features had not officially confirmed that date at the time of reporting.
- The film’s online fan culture around the ‘One Wish Willow’ prop and its YouTube‑to‑studio origin story have prompted studios to rethink short theatrical windows and have generated increased interest and offers for director Curry Barker.
