Marvel’s Highest-grossing Movies of 2019

2019 has proved to be a successful year for the Marvel movies and an emotional ride for Marvel fans since the “Infinity Saga” came to an end after a decade. Marvel Studios released three blockbusters this year, and all of them has become a part of the $1 billion club. Captain Marvel, Avengers: Endgame and Spider-Man: Far From Home. Although Sony owns the distribution rights of Spider-Man movies but all of them exist in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, so here we go.

1- Avengers: Endgame

Captain Marvel is one of the few origin stories that hit a billion-dollar mark on the box office. Directed by Anna Boden and Ryan Fleck, the movie managed to earn approximately $1.12 billion at the box office.

This made Captain Marvel the 7th movie around the world with the biggest opening yet. The film introduces a major subplot (The Kree-Skrull wars) that could play an important role in the upcoming Marvel movies. Brie Larson plays Captain Marvel in the MCU.

3- Spider-Man: Far From Home

The third MCU movie in the list is Spider-Man: Far from Home with $1.1 billion at the global box office. The movie is Sony’s highest-grossing film of all time leaving Skyfall(2012) behind. It is also the first Spider-Man movie to cross a billion-dollar mark. The movie is directed by Jon Watts and was released on June 2019.

Even after the record-breaking business, we might not (or maybe we will) see Spider-Man with other Avengers. That’s because of Sony and Disney’s dispute over revenue sharing. Sony has confirmed that they are pulling out Spider-Man from the MCU. Hence, the next Spider-Man movie will be standalone without other MCU characters.
