Disney achieved a remarkable feat in 2016, securing the top five highest-grossing films worldwide. This unprecedented achievement showcased the studio's dominance in the box office and remains a record difficult to surpass.
Disney 's giant blockbuster franchises achieved a near-impossible feat at the worldwide box office in 2016 — and that feat may never be repeated by another studio (or even by Disney itself). The Mouse House has made an impressive recovery at the box office this year with a trio of massive hits culminating in Moana 2.
The Disney brand hit an all-time low in 2022 and 2023 with bombs like The Marvels, Strange World, and the Haunted Mansion reboot, and commercial disappointments like Elemental, The Little Mermaid, Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania, and Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny. But in 2024, Disney has made an impressive comeback at the box office. It had the two highest-grossing movies of the year with Pixar’s Inside Out 2, the highest-grossing animated movie ever made, and Marvel Studios’ Deadpool & Wolverine, the highest-grossing R-rated movie ever made. As impressive as Disney’s box office recovery in 2024 was, it was nowhere near as impressive as the box office success the studio accomplished in 2016. Disney’s 2016 success will be difficult for any studio to replicate (especially in a post-COVID world).

Zootopia, a hit original animation, grossed $1,023,784,195, and the live-action remake of The Jungle Book grossed $966,550,60
