Marvel Studios Crosses $30 Billion in Global Box Office – $20 Billion More Than Second Place Star Wars.
Marvel Studios has achieved a mighty feat at the box office: $30 billion.
Thanks to the amazing start of Deadpool & Wolverine — which has already made $211 million worldwide — The Walt Disney Company’s Marvel Studios has now collectively grossed over $30 billion at the global box office. The Marvel Cinematic Universe — which has produced blockbusters such as Avengers: Endgame, Black Panther, and Iron Man — is the highest-grossing film franchise of all time.
But the achievements for Marvel Studios don’t stop at the $30 billion number. Some of the other accomplishments for Marvel at the box office are:
- Each of its 33 feature films have opened No. 1 at the weekend box office domestically, with Deadpool & Wolverine poised to be the 34th.
- 10 films have grossed over $1 billion globally, while two films have grossed over $2 billion.
- Marvel holds the No. 2, No. 6, No. 7, and No. 10 spots on the list of highest-grossing films of all time worldwide.
Kevin Feige — producer and president of Marvel Studios — said this week that the one thing he’s learned over the course of 34 films in the MCU is to ensure each film has a moment that fills the audience with excitement and enthusiasm.
“To me, continuing to learn and to think as a fan and as an audience member is the key to being a great creative producer,” he said.
