Box office: Inside Out 2 knocks Avengers out of global top 10

With $1.5 billion under its belt, the latest Pixar continues to be a hit.

All eyes were on Deadpool & Wolverinethis weekend: Marvel's blockbuster continued its success at the American and global box office, passing the $800 million mark in revenue in less than two weeks on the screen. A success that eclipsed another: Inside Out 2 also continues to do very well internationally. The animated feature film, from Disney-Pixar studios, has even entered the global top 10 thanks to $1.556 billion collected since the beginning of June. It thus dislodges Avengers and its final score of 1.520 billion. Also produced by Disney, the Joss Whedon film had been on this list since 2012.

Here are the top 10 biggest hits of all time (in unadjusted dollars):

1. Avatar has raised $2.9 billion since 2009
2. Avengers: Endgame has raised $2.7 billion since 2019
3. Avatar: The Way of Water has raised $2.3 billion since 2022
4. Titanic has raised $2.2 billion since 1997
5. Star Wars: The Force Awakens has raised $2.071 billion since 2015
6. Avengers: Infinity War has raised $2.052 billion since 2018
7. Spider-Man: No Way Home has raised $1.9 billion since 2021
8. Jurassic World has raised $1.671 billion since 2015
9. The Lion King has raised $1.663 billion since 2019
10. Inside Out 2 has raised $1.556 billion since June 2024 (so far)

Note that most of the hits listed here date from the 2010s: only Titanicby James Cameron, is a multi-billionaire despite being released in the 1990s. Between Marvel, Star Wars and Pixar, Disney has produced the majority of titles here, especially since the acquisition of 20th Century Fox, which allowed the studio to acquire the rights to Titanic and some Avatar. Universal is also present in this ranking thanks to the saga Jurassic World. All movies in this rating are rated PG-13 (not recommended for children under 13 without adult supervision), but none are R-Rated. Deadpool & Wolverine will he be the first?

Inside Out 2 quickly became the biggest animated hit of all time – except for the Lion King by Jon Favreau, considered a film “live”although the animals are created digitally. It is still in the top 5 in America at the moment, and in the top 10 in France, and should therefore continue to advance in this global ranking until the end of the summer.
