The Legend of Tarzan grossed $126.6 million in the United States and Canada and $230.1 million in other territories, for a worldwide total of $356.7 million. Given its $180 million production budget, it would have had to have earned at least $400 million to break even and justify a sequel. Deadline Hollywoods financial analysts stated that Warner Bros. lost an estimated $40 million on the film, although the studio itself asserted the film broke even.
