## Key points

- *Heart of the Beast* is nearing a global box-office milestone.
- Paramount kept the Brad Pitt film in cinemas.
- It has a reported 94% audience rating.

## Summary

Brad Pitt’s *Heart of the Beast*, directed by David Ayer, is approaching a major global box-office milestone after several weeks in cinemas. Paramount’s decision to keep the film in theatres rather than quickly releasing it for premium video on demand appears to have supported its performance, particularly among older audiences.

The film has been removed from 1,800 theatres, but the article says it is nearing the milestone without specifying the exact total or target. It has a reported 94% audience rating, and its theatrical run may help build interest ahead of its home-video release. Pitt’s recent hit *F1* earned more than $630 million worldwide; Ayer also directed *The Beekeeper* and *A Working Man*.
