Highest-Grossing Video Game Movies Of All Time
With Uncharted doing big business in theaters and many more adaptations in the works, we’re listing off the highest-gros
Sony’s new Uncharted movie starring Tom Holland and Mark Wahlberg is currently lighting up the box office and doing big numbers. It’s not the first video game adaptation from Hollywood and it won’t be the last. But where does Uncharted rank among the all-time biggest video game movies? In this gallery, we’re rounding up the highest-grossing video game films of all time, breaking down box office results by domestic, international, and worldwide figures. That’s a notable distinction in some cases. For example, the highest-grossing video game film of all time, Warcraft, bombed in the US ($47.4 million) but did massive numbers in international markets ($391.7 million)–including China–which propelled it to the top of the list by a wide margin.
The top 10 list is made up of massive franchises like Pokemon, Tomb Raider, Angry Birds, and Sonic, just to name a few. Looking ahead, there are a boatload of new video game films in the works, including some coming this year like Sonic the Hedgehog 2 (April) and Super Mario (December).
Without further ado, here are the top 10 highest-grossing video game movies of all time. All box office figures are pulled from Amazon’s BoxOfficeMojo.
