    That is a staggering, hilariously lower amount than it should be considering each film is around $200M+ sunk costs.

      The article is talking about the domestic box office gross only (which is just the US and Canada). It does not include grosses from the rest of the world.

        I’m aware. And as I previously stated, that is undeniably a poor return in comparison to the money put into these productions.

      This article is talking about domestic sales only (which means only counting money from US and Canada). It’s a combination of the domestic grosses of Deadpool & Wolverine, Inside Out 2, Moana 2, Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes, Alien: Romulus ,and Mufasa.

      Including worldwide grosses, Disney made ~$4.3 billion.
