With just four months left before the end of the year, Disney is leading as the highest-grossing studio at the 2024 box office. Disney has a significant lead on Universal Pictures as 2024’s highest-grosser.
Following a desolate few years due to major disappointments across the board, Disney came on top this year. Thanks to Inside Out 2 and Deadpool and Wolverine, Disney is the highest-grossing studio at the 2024 box office.
Last year, Universal Pictures ranked as the highest-grossing studio at the 2023 box office. With blockbuster hits Oppenheimer and The Super Mario Bros Movie, Universal collected $4.907 billion worldwide. Universal’s win marked the first time since 2015 that Disney was not the global box office leader.
This year, Universal Pictures and Disney are the only two studios to cross the $2 billion mark worldwide. However, Disney has raked in 1.5X more than Universal’s revenue at the global box office. So far, Disney has released five films that have collectively grossed over $3 billion. Following First Omen’s decent box office performance in April, Disney scored a modest hit with Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes. However, the summer blockbuster hits Inside Out 2, and Deadpool and Wolverine pushed Disney past the $3 Billion mark. Alien: Romulus also proved to be a hit for the Disney studio, which has grossed over $3.3 billion worldwide.
