”Joker” has become the top R-rated movie of all time by global box-office revenue.
“Joker” wasn’t supposed to be a blockbuster — even the executives at its own studio reportedly weren’t betting on a big win. Yet the unique, darkly violent movie is killing it a the box office.
It also now holds the record for biggest fall opening weekend, winning out over the Marvel movie “Venom,” released in the same weekend last year. It currently sits at No. 7 on the list of top box-office hauls for 2019, far behind the $2.8 billion for “Avengers: Endgame,” which is also the top-grossing film of all time. Even if “Joker” does cross $1 billion, it’s unclear if it could beat out “Aladdin,” currently at No. 6 among 2019 films, with a global take of $1,050,693,953.
