Hollywood is having a good run at the box office, and we're only halfway through 2026. A handful of films stood out — some were expected blockbusters, others were breakout hits. There's also a healthy mix of originals and sequels. One film is already on this year's top five global earners, only three weeks after its release. It crossed a major milestone this week, and it is now steadily climbing up the worldwide box office charts with only two films left to beat. the long-awaited sequel is performing exceptionally well and has the legs to go the distance.
