It’s been a rollercoaster year so far with films from varied genres leaving the audiences awestruck. From epic live-action franchise offerings to animated works, the highest-grossing movies worldwide in the first six months of 2024 have been a mix of fantasy drama, action and more. Check out which are the highest-grossing movies of 2024 so far.

Year 2024: Highest-grossing movies that all should watch

Among the animation films at the top of the 2024 highest-grossing movies list is Kung Fu Panda 4. And why shouldn’t it, right? Every film in the franchise has been a major theatrical draw, with fans rooting for the lovable panda Po and his adventures in a world of martial arts masters.

Not only Kung Fu Panda 4, but both IF, which is part animated, and The Garfield Movie are among the 12 highest earners at the worldwide box office.

Of course, the major live-action movies dominate the list and continue to churn the most money among all types of films.

Dune: Part Two, so far the highest-grossing film of 2024, was always expected to perform very well at the box office. With its stellar star cast and the success of its previous instalment, it was always expected to do very well in theatres.

The same is the case with Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire. The latest instalment in the Monsterverse franchise expectedly shattered the worldwide box office with fans wanting to see more action of the two titular titans colliding on the screen.

Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes takes forward the legacy of its franchise not only in terms of box office revenue but also as a story.

Above all, there is one very important fact to take note of — none of the movies have yet touched the USD 1-billion mark. In fact, none has so far even touched USD 750 million. Deadpool & Wolverine and Gladiator II, two movies releasing later in 2024, might breach the mark.

Until then, Dune: Part Two shall sit at the top with a gamut of other fine gems that hit the screens in the first half of 2024.
