Following a successful 2023 with hits like “Barbenheimer” and “The Super Mario Bros. Movie,” the 2024 box office is expected to see a decline. Gower Street Analytics predicts that global box office revenues for 2024 will fall short of the previous year’s totals. Despite the domestic market showing a 1% increase above projections in the first quarter of 2024, many releases have failed to meet financial expectations, particularly Madame Web.
May’s summer movie lineup faced challenges due to the disappointing box office returns of The Fall Guy and Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga. Conversely, June has seen a resurgence, largely driven by sequels from well-established franchises. Further boosts are anticipated with the upcoming releases of Twisters and Deadpool & Wolverine, the latter being a strong contender for the year’s top-grossing film. Here are the 10 most popular movies of 2024 ranked by domestic gross:
- Inside Out 2 ($537,948,505)
- Dune: Part Two ($282,144,358)
- Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire ($196,350,016)
- Kung Fu Panda 4 ($193,590,620)
- Bad Boys: Ride or Die ($178,165,954)
- Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes ($169,721,843)
- Despicable Me 4 ($131,885,255)
- Ghostbusters: Frozen Empire ($113,376,590)
- IF ($110,857,288)
