Universal's banner year continues with another record.
Universal Pictures International has grossed $3.78 billion to set a new industry record for the highest-grossing year ever at the international box office.
Internationally, the studio has four of the top five highest-grossing films of the year: "Furious 7" (No. 1 with $1.162 billion), "Jurassic World" (No. 2 with $983.5 million), "Minions" (No. 4 with $670.2 million) and "Fifty Shades of Grey" (No. 5 with $404.1 million).
The studio, which also set records for the fastest a studio has ever reached $2 billion and $3 billion at the international box office, has also been No. 1 at the international box office for 10 weeks, more than any other studio, and has had four No. 1 worldwide openings.
"Jurassic World" has the biggest international and worldwide opening weekend of all time, opening No. 1 in 69 territories where the film was released. It was the fastest film to reach $1 billion worldwide after only 13 days of release and is currently the third-highest-grossing film worldwide ever, behind only "Avatar" and "Titanic."
"Furious 7" became the highest-grossing film ever in China ($391.2 million), and its also the fifth-highest-grossing film worldwide ever.
Illumination Entertainment’s "Minions" is the highest-grossing animated film of the year; the highest grossing animated film of all-time in Latin America; the fourth-highest-grossing animated film internationally and third-highest-grossing animated film worldwide.
Still coming up for the studio this year is the international release of "Straight Outta Compton" (which topped the domestic box office for the past two weeks); "The Visit," the original new thriller from writer/director/producer M. Night Shyamalan; adventure film "Everest," directed by Baltasar Kormákur; Danny Boyle's "Steve Jobs;" Guillermo del Toro's gothic romance "Crimson Peak;" Angelina Jolie Pitt's "By the Sea;" and "Krampus," the horror-comedy from Legendary.
