B.O. since 2019 when it an all-time $13.1B<\/a> ($11.1B from Disney titles alone, the rest being 20th Century Studios and Searchlight). That was the first and only time a major motion picture studio crossed $10B at the worldwide B.O. Note, Warner Bros, crossed $4B first this year before any other motion picture studio. <\/p>\n\n\tThis is Disney\u2019s fifth time clicking past $6B, the previous years being 2019, 2018, 2017 and 2016.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\n\tDisney\u2019s flew to $6B this year off the heels of 16 wide releases including two $1 billion-plus grossing titles with Zootopia 2 ($1.3B to date) and Lilo & Stitch ($1.038 billion) \u2014 the only two MPA titles to cross that mark. There were also three Marvel Studios movies which combined topped $1.3B global: The Fantastic Four: First Steps, Thunderbolts* and Captain America: Brave New World. In addition there was Predator: Badlands which became the highest grossing in the 38-year old sci-fi thriller franchise with a near $184M as well as Freakier Friday ($153.1M). Not faring well, but contributing to the pot were Tron Ares ($142.2M), and Pixar\u2019s Elio ($154.2M).<\/p>\n
\n\tAvatar: Fire and Ash collected $50.8M worldwide yesterday, $16.5M of that coming from North America. The running total of the Cameron, Amanda Silver, Rick Jaffa, Josh Friedman & Shane Salerno story by threequel is $119M domestic, with $331.1M overseas. China continues to lead all offshore results with $67M. <\/p>\n
\n\tAs we reported previously, Fire and Ash repped the second biggest global opening for a MPA title this year with $347M after Disney\u2019s own Zootopia 2 ($560.3M). The threequel also repped the second biggest global opening for Cameron after 2022\u2019s Avatar: Way of Water at $441.7M (historically reported). <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Disney Studios continues to show the power of the theatrical window as the Burbank, CA lot is officially…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":367902,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[52],"tags":[34531,88,206,178731],"class_list":{"0":"post-367901","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-movies","8":"tag-avatar-fire-and-ash","9":"tag-entertainment","10":"tag-movies","11":"tag-walt-disney-studios"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/367901","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=367901"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/367901\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/367902"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=367901"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=367901"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=367901"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
