Disney has been knocked off its perch as Hollywood’s top-grossing studio at the box office in 2023 by Universal, according to reports.

Last year, the two entertainment giants battled for supremacy in movie theaters, with reports from Variety and Hollywood Reporter indicating that Universal managed to edge out Disney in both domestic and offshore revenue.
