"Top Gun 2" has a global box office of over $1 billion and is the highest-grossing movie in 2022

According to Variety, both Elvis and Top Gun 2 grossed $30.5 million in North America last weekend, with one day left (local time on June 26) to decide the winner. Currently, Top Gun 2 is slightly ahead with $30.5 million. Elvis made its debut last weekend with $30.5 million. It is worth mentioning that Top Gun 2 is already in its fifth weekend in theaters.

"Top Gun 2" has strong box office in North America, with domestic box office reaching US$521 million. At the same time, the film's global box office has now exceeded the US$1 billion milestone, becoming the highest-grossing film of 2022 and the first film to exceed US$1 billion since "Spider-Man 3" ($1.9 billion) last year.

In addition, the performance of the "Elvis" movie in overseas markets was mediocre, with only 20 million US dollars in box office in 51 markets, and the current total box office is 50.5 million US dollars.

"Top Gun 2" and "Elvis" relegated "Jurassic World 3", which had topped the charts for the past two weekends, to third place with a box office of only $26.4 million. However, this was enough to push "Jurassic World 3" to more than $300 million domestically and $747 million worldwide.

The fourth place is Ethan Hawke's horror film "The Black Telephone", which grossed $23.3 million in its first weekend, $13.4 million overseas, and a total of $35.8 million. Considering that it cost only $18 million, the performance of "The Black Telephone" is pretty good.

The fifth place went to "Lightyears", which earned only $17.7 million, a 65% drop from its opening weekend. "Lightyears" recently grossed $88 million in North America and a total of $152 million.
