Top 10 Highest Grossing Movies of All Time
The all-time worldwide box office leaderboard is dominated by three franchises — Avatar, Marvel’s Avengers, and Star Wars — plus Titanic, the lone non-franchise film in the top five.
Older blockbusters like Gone with the Wind grossed less in nominal dollars but more once adjusted for inflation. The numbers below are unadjusted nominal grosses, the standard headline figure.
| # | Name | Worldwide Gross (USD millions) | Unit |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Avatar (2009) | 2,923 | USD millions |
| 2 | Avengers: Endgame (2019) | 2,799 | USD millions |
| 3 | Avatar: The Way of Water (2022) | 2,320 | USD millions |
| 4 | Titanic (1997) | 2,257 | USD millions |
| 5 | Star Wars: The Force Awakens (2015) | 2,071 | USD millions |
| 6 | Avengers: Infinity War (2018) | 2,052 | USD millions |
| 7 | Spider-Man: No Way Home (2021) | 1,922 | USD millions |
| 8 | Inside Out 2 (2024) | 1,699 | USD millions |
| 9 | Jurassic World (2015) | 1,672 | USD millions |
| 10 | The Lion King (2019) | 1,663 | USD millions |
How Box Office Is Tracked
Worldwide box office is the sum of ticket revenues from theatrical releases in every country, including re-releases. The two industry-standard public sources are Box Office Mojo (an IMDb subsidiary) and The Numbers, which both aggregate weekly reports from individual studios and exhibitors.
Avatar’s record is unusual because part of its lead came from a 2022 re-release. After Avatar: The Way of Water released in late 2022, the original Avatar was put back in theaters globally and added another $76 million, pushing it past $2.92 billion and back ahead of Avengers: Endgame, which had briefly held the top spot.
Inflation muddies cross-era comparisons. Gone with the Wind (1939) made about $400 million unadjusted but an estimated $4 billion in 2024 dollars — well above Avatar. Most public charts use unadjusted nominal grosses for simplicity, which favors recent films.
China matters more every year. Several blockbusters now make 30–40% of their worldwide gross in the Chinese market, and a handful of Chinese-only releases — The Battle at Lake Changjin, Wolf Warrior 2 — would rank inside the global top 30 if their domestic-only grosses were converted to USD.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the highest-grossing movie of all time?
Avatar (2009) is the all-time leader at roughly $2.92 billion worldwide, including revenue from its 2022 theatrical re-release.
Are these numbers adjusted for inflation?
No. The figures above are nominal worldwide gross in current US dollars, which is the standard for public box-office charts. Inflation-adjusted rankings look very different and put older films like Gone with the Wind near the top.
Why is Avengers: Endgame second instead of first?
Endgame originally crossed Avatar’s gross in 2019. Avatar reclaimed the top spot in 2022 after a global theatrical re-release added enough revenue to overtake Endgame again.
What's the highest-grossing animated movie?
Inside Out 2 (2024) is now the highest-grossing animated film at about $1.69 billion, surpassing Frozen II’s $1.45 billion.
Note: Grosses are nominal worldwide cumulative box office in USD as of late 2024, sourced from Box Office Mojo and The Numbers. Active films are subject to change.
