Publishing timestamp: 2025-01-15 13:00:01


Summary

The box office saw a boost in the final months of 2024 thanks to successful releases from major studios like Disney, Marvel, and Universal. Despite a challenging year, ticket sales were down only 3.4% from 2023, with Disney leading the way. Analysts predict a rebound in 2025 and potential to break the $10 billion mark in 2026, with a lineup of blockbuster franchises and popular IP films. Disney's "Inside Out 2," Marvel's "Deadpool & Wolverine," and Universal's "Wicked" were among the top-grossing films of the year, helping the industry recover from a slow start due to production delays.
