Disney movies are having a $10 billion year -- and 'Rise of Skywalker' hasn't even come out yet.
Now that “Frozen 2” is on the brink of earning $1 billion worldwide, the House of Mouse’s global box office total is poised to cross the $10 billion mark, making it the first movie studio to ever do that in a single year. That breaks its previous record placeholder of $7.6 billion, which it set in 2016 with “Captain America: Civil War,” “Finding Dory,” the live-action “Jungle Book” remake, and “Rogue One.
A note to Spider-Man fans: While Tom Holland’s webslinger is a part of the Disney-owned Marvel Cinematic Universe, and the MCU and Sony SNE, +0.37% co-produced “Spider-Man: Far From Home,” the rights to the character are still owned by Sony. That’s why “Far From Home’s” $1.131 billion haul this year doesn’t go towards Disney’s grand total.
