Box office revenue of leading film studios in North America in 2019
Figures on the box office gross of leading film studios in the United States and Canada in 2019 revealed that Disney ranked first by a significant margin, with releases from the studio earning 3.7 billion U.S. dollars that year. Disney had a 38 percent box office market share in North America in 2019 (including 20th Century Fox's 4.9 percent share), and major hit 'Avengers: Endgame' alone brought in almost 860 million U.S. dollars domestically.
Whilst no other studio came close to achieving the box office revenue enjoyed by Disney, Lionsgate performed well despite its status as a 'mini-major' studio, largely thanks to 'John Wick: Chapter 3 - Parabellum', and 'Knives Out'. Sony's 'Spider-Man: Far From Home' also did well domestically and placed itself squarely among the highest grossing movies in the franchise, and Warner Bros. hit 'Joker' grossed over one billion worldwide and well in excess of 300 million dollars stateside.
