Star Trek Into Darkness
When a rogue agent from within Starfleet unleashes chaos on Earth, Captain Kirk must lead his crew into a brutal manhunt on a war-torn world to stop a one-man weapon of mass destruction before the Federation collapses.
“Beyond the darkness, lies greatness.”
Synopsis
When the *Enterprise* crew is recalled to Earth, they discover that an unstoppable threat from within their own organization has destroyed the fleet and everything it represents, plunging the world into crisis. Seeking personal vengeance, Captain Kirk leads a mission to a war-torn planet to capture a rogue individual capable of mass destruction. As the crew is drawn into a high-stakes battle of survival, relationships are tested, friendships are strained, and sacrifices become necessary to protect the only family Kirk has left: his crew.

How many hands made this film
The scale of the collaboration
Principal cast & crew: 27
These are the principals we have on file — the full crew ran to the hundreds. Every film this size was made by far more hands than any credits list ever names.
Why a floor?
This is a minimum, not a total. We only count the credits we’ve captured so far, and coverage is uneven — a blockbuster might show a few hundred names while another of the same size shows a couple dozen. The real crews all ran into the thousands. The number here only grows as full credits are enriched — so we frame it as a floor, never a headcount.

⚖️ Fell short of break-even — grossed 2.5× its budget
Why 2.5×?
Cinemas keep roughly half of every ticket sold, and a wide release’s marketing often costs about as much again as the film — so a movie needs to gross around 2.5× its production budget just to break even theatrically. It’s a rule of thumb, not the studio’s ledger (home video and streaming come later).
Worldwide gross
$467.4M
US & Canada: $228.8M — 49% of worldwide · International: $238.6M (51%)
Opening weekend: $13.5M — 6% of its US run. It had legs — it kept earning long after opening weekend.
Opening week (7-day): $13.5M — 6% of its US & Canada run.
