Billion Dollar Babies: Movies that Crossed the Ten Figure Mark


Only eight movies have ever crossed the $1 billion mark at the worldwide box office. The newbie to the club is Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides, which reached the milestone over the July 4th weekend, fueled by a massive showing overseas. If there’s a studio that owns the club, it’s Disney, which has four films on the list. When it comes to directors, James Cameron is the champ, between Avatar and Titanic, which are No. 1 and No. 2. And there’s no doubt that Johnny Depp remains the world’s biggest box office star, with three films in the club.


Here's the List:
