Notes: Built from box office (P2142) statements in US dollars (unit Q4917) on film items. The worldwide figure is the statement qualified 'valid in place: worldwide' (preferred rank first, then the most recent 'as of' date, then the largest); for films with no such qualifier, an unqualified US-dollar figure is used; figures for a single country or region are ignored. Grosses are nominal (not adjusted for inflation) and include re-releases up to the 'as of' date. Wikidata is not a box-office tracker: figures can lag behind current totals for films still in release or recently re-released, so check the 'as of' column.
