Wonka surpasses $600 million globally

Wonka has been in theatres since last December and its still continuing to make great strides at the box office. The musical fantasy film has now surpassed $600 million at the global box office, which is a feat only achieved by seven films in 2023.

"This achievement is a testament the creative brilliance of Paul King, [producer] David Heyman, Timothée Chalamet and the dedicated cast and crew," Mike De Luca and Pamela Abdy, co-chairs & CEOs of Warner Bros. Motion Picture Group, said in a statement. "Together they brought the timeless magic of Roald Dahl's iconic characters to life in a way that only they could and have turned it into an instant classic for a new generation. Our heartfelt thanks go out to moviegoers across the globe for embracing 'Wonka' in such a remarkable way."

The only other films that managed to surpass $600 million in 2023 are Barbie, Oppenheimer, The Super Mario Bros. Movie, Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3, Fast X, and Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse.

Thanks, Variety.
