Top Gun: Maverick has reached $1 billion in box office revenue recently, making it the most successful movie globally so far in 2022. Maverick is flying higher than any previous Paramount film. The domestic box office for the Tom Cruise-starring fighter jet movie has now surpassed that of Titanic.
According to Collider, the 1986 sequel to Top Gun has surpassed James Cameron’s Titanic to become Paramount’s highest-grossing domestic film of all time. Top Gun: Maverick is currently flying at the highest point in the sky at number one, despite Paramount Pictures having released hundreds of movies in its 110-year history. Brian Robbins, President and CEO of Paramount Pictures recently made a statement on its achievement
Top Gun: Maverick is a phenomenal motion picture, and we take deep pride in celebrating this tremendous achievement alongside Tom Cruise, our filmmakers and cast, our marketing and distribution teams, and, of course, all the new and original Top Gun fans, without whom this wouldn’t have been possible.
The movie has officially surpassed Titanic’s total domestic box office revenue of $600.7 million with $601.9 million. Tom Cruise’s biggest grossing movie to date, the movie was a huge hit for him. Additionally, it has more than $1 billion in box office revenue worldwide.
The action scenes in the movie contribute significantly to its success. These sequences stand out and are some of the reasons we commended the movie in our review; some of them could only be shot once due to the set blowing away. Top Gun: Maverick was described as an out-of-bounds blitz of afterburner fumes and thrill-seeker highs that’s guaranteed to please viewers searching for a classic summer movie by the critics.
