The second largest movie studio in 2020 - Universal - also released the second highest grossing film in North America. 2019 holdover and war drama '1917' earned almost 158 million U.S. dollars. Together with the films 'Dolittle' and 'The Invisible Man', amongst others, Universal held a market share of 21.9 percent in the region.

Disney's top performer in 2020 was 'Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker', which was already released the year before. Due to cinema closures because of the coronavirus pandemic, the company put out life-action movie 'Mulan' on its streaming service Disney+ instead of releasing it on big screen.
