All 51 Movies That Have Made More Than $1 Billion at the Box Office

The movies that have cleared the $1 billion mark at the box office belong to a pretty exclusive club. To date, there are only 51 members.

The newest initiate is 2022’s Avatar: The Way of Water, which, as of this writing, is sitting smugly in 13th place with a worldwide gross of more than $1.4 billion. It’s an impressive feat for a sequel that hit theaters less than three weeks ago—and premiered a good 13 years after its predecessor. It will need to earn another $1.5 billion or so if it hopes to unseat Avatar (2009) as the reigning champ of this list.

Two other 2022 movies gained entry, both of which are also follow-ups to very famous flicks: Top Gun: Maverick, which missed the top 10 by a single spot; and Jurassic World Dominion, in last place.

In fact, most of these billion-dollar blockbusters draw from existing intellectual property. There are straight sequels (2019’s Frozen II and 2015’s Star Wars: Episode VII – The Force Awakens); live-action remakes (2019’s The Lion King and 2017’s Beauty and the Beast); adaptations of beloved novels (2001’s Harry Potter and the Sorcerer’s Stone, 2012’s The Hobbit); and, of course, plenty of superhero movies.

The notable exceptions to that rule mainly come from James Cameron, including the aforementioned Avatar films and 1997’s unsinkable juggernaut Titanic, which grossed a hardy $2.2 billion. Oh, and Disney’s Zootopia also makes the list. (It’s hard to beat a talking fox voiced by Jason Bateman.)
