Lilo & Stitch has finally surpassed $1 billion in the worldwide box office. After weeks of immense success, Disney’s live-action remake of the 2002 animated movie by the same name has become the first Hollywood movie of 2025 to reach the $1 billion mark. “We knew there was a lot of love for Lilo & Stitch with audiences around the world, yet we never take that for granted, and we’re proud of how this new film has connected with people,” Disney Entertainment Co-Chairman Alan Bergman said in a statement. Lilo & Stitch has been breaking records since its release in May, when it had the highest Memorial Day weekend debut in history, garnering $183 million at the box office in just four days. It was one of only two movies to pass the $400 million mark at the domestic box office this year, and has even become the highest-grossing Disney live-action movie of all time in Mexico. Traction around the live-action movie also brought viewers back to the original animated version, which has been viewed more than 640 million hours on Disney+. The movie is the latest of Disney’s recent billion dollar films like Moana 2, Inside Out 2, as well as Deadpool & Wolverine. A sequel is already in development.
