Barbie’s historic box office success has smashed a specific record held for over 30 years, with the 2023 summer hit showing no sign of slowing down.
Summary SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT 2023's summer smash hit Barbie has destroyed a specific record that was held by one film for over 30 years. Released in July 2023, Barbie was part of one of the biggest box office phenomenons of the year due in part to having the same release date as Christopher Nolan's Oppenheimer.
Barbie Is The Highest-Grossing Comedy Movie Of All-Time The record in question is the title of the highest-grossing comedy movie of all time domestically, which Barbie now holds. Before Barbie's release, the highest-grossing comedy movie of all time domestically was 1990's Home Alone, with the Christmas flick holding that title for over three decades.
Will Barbie Break The $1 Billion Box Office Mark? With Barbie's box office continuing to grow and the film smashing all kinds of records, the question looms over whether it will cross the coveted $1 billion threshold. If all continues as it has been, Barbie is likely to cross the $1 billion mark by the end of its third weekend, if not shortly after.
