Among the standout titles, “Inside Out 2” has taken the lead, streaming on Disney+. This animated sequel has captivated audiences worldwide, raking in an astounding $1.6 billion, making it not only the highest-grossing movie of the year but also the eighth highest-grossing global release in history (not adjusted for inflation).

In addition to “Inside Out 2,” Disney+ also showcases “Deadpool & Wolverine,” which made waves as the highest-grossing R-rated movie of all time, with $1.3 billion in global earnings. On another front, Denis Villeneuve’s highly anticipated “Dune: Part Two” is now available for streaming on Max, having secured $714 million worldwide, cementing its place as one of 2024’s top earners.

The slate of movies doesn’t stop at blockbusters. A trove of critically acclaimed Oscar contenders has also made its debut on streaming services.
