American Sniper Surpasses $300 Million at the Domestic Box Office February 15, 2015
Burbank, CA - Warner Bros. Pictures' and Village Roadshow Pictures' Oscar-nominated blockbuster American Sniper continues to make cinema history, crossing $300 million at the domestic box office today.

It is now the top-grossing war movie of all time, Bradley Cooper's biggest live-action feature ever, and the second-highest-grossing R-rated drama ever. In addition, it is the first Warner Bros. non-franchise film, only the seventh Warner Bros. release of any kind, and one of only 50 films in cinema history to achieve this milestone domestically.
In making the announcement, Fellman stated, This is another extraordinary benchmark for an extraordinary film. Rarely does a film come along that strikes such an emotional and thought-provoking chord with such a wide audience. Congratulations to Clint Eastwood and everyone involved in American Sniper' on the film's huge success, both at the box office and in the hearts and minds of people everywhere.
