Iron Lung North America Box Office: Iron Lung, the R-rated horror film based on the popular video game, is continuing its strong run at the North American box office. Created by YouTuber Markiplier, the movie has quickly become one of the most profitable releases of 2026 thanks to its low budget and steady audience interest.
Released on January 30 in over 3,000 theatres, the film has earned around $46.5 million worldwide after 17 days. Of this, $37.5 million comes from North America, while international markets have added another $9 million. During the Valentine’s Day weekend, the movie collected a solid $3.5 million in its third weekend, showing a reasonable drop of 49.4 percent and proving its strong hold among horror fans.
Made on a modest $3 million budget, Iron Lung has already earned more than 12 times its production cost from domestic collections alone. Industry trackers now expect the film to finish close to the $50 million mark in North America.
The story follows a convict named Simon exploring a mysterious blood ocean on a distant moon inside a submarine. While critics have given mixed reviews, audiences have responded positively, helping the film maintain momentum at the box office through strong word of mouth.
