The 5 highest-grossing films on the worldwide field workplace in 2019 are, so as, Avengers: Endgame ($2.7 billion), The Lion King ($1.three billion), Captain Marvel ($1.1 billion), Spider-Man: Far From Home ($1.09 billion), and Aladdin ($1.03 billion). These unfathomably in style (if not critically beloved) movies have so much in frequent: they’re both remakes or a part of a cinematic universe, they hail from Disney or Sony, they usually had been the one films this yr to make over $1 billion… earlier than Thursday, when the billion greenback membership obtained a brand new member.

And you’ll by no means imagine this: it’s a sequel from Disney!

Meanwhile, in keeping with Box Office Mojo, 2019’s lowest worldwide-grosser is one thing from Viva Pictures known as Tall Tales from the Magical Garden of Antoon Krings ($220 complete!). I’m listening to Disney is planning a live-action remake… and it’s already made $2 billion.

It appears actually good.
