Jonathan Bailey Smashes Major 2025 Box Office Record

by

Jonathan Bailey is the highest-earning actor of 2025, driven by his success in two blockbuster films this year.

As of November 23rd, Bailey’s new musical film, Wicked: For Good, has grossed $150 million in the US and Canada, and another $76 million worldwide, for a total global revenue of $226 million.

Most of Bailey’s success at the box office is due to Jurassic World: Rebirth, which has earned $339.6 million in the US and $529.2 million internationally, for a total of $868.8 million worldwide. When combined with the earnings of Wicked: For Good, Bailey has been involved with films that have grossed over $1.09 billion globally in 2025.

Bailey has been receiving critical acclaim for his role as Fiyero in Wicked: For Good. The Guardian described him as a captivating and flamboyant Fiyero, while ABC News praised his singing, dancing, and acting skills. He also performed the song “Dancing Through Life” for the film’s soundtrack, which charted on the Billboard Hot 100, reaching number 86 after initially debuting at number 90.

He received two Screen Actors Guild Award nominations for his work on the film: one for Best Supporting Actor and another recognizing the entire cast’s performance.

I was so thrilled to see Callum Bailey not only killing it on screen, but also absolutely nail the role of Richard II on stage! He starred in Nicholas Hytner’s production at the Bridge Theatre, and honestly, his performance was incredible – he played the title role right up until May.

This year, Bailey has proven himself to be a highly successful and adaptable actor, excelling in both large-scale film franchises and musical performances. His talent has clearly connected with viewers around the globe.
