Disney’s live-action reimagining of “Lilo & Stitch” has officially crossed the $1 billion mark at the global box office, making it the first Motion Picture Association (MPA) title of 2025 to reach this milestone. The film now stands as the top global and international MPA release of the year, further cementing Disney’s dominance in the entertainment industry.

This achievement marks Disney’s fourth billion-dollar film in just over a year, joining the ranks of “Moana 2,” “Deadpool & Wolverine,” and “Inside Out 2.” “Lilo & Stitch” opened with a record-breaking $183 million over Memorial Day weekend in North America and is one of only two films this year to surpass $400 million domestically.

The film’s success has reignited worldwide interest in the “Lilo & Stitch” franchise, with over 640 million hours of the original animated film and related content streamed on Disney+ globally. A sequel to the live-action film is already in development, reflecting the brand’s enduring popularity.

Disney’s ability to revitalize classic stories for new generations is on full display, with “Lilo & Stitch” driving engagement across theatrical releases, streaming, and consumer products. The film’s performance highlights the global reach and cross-platform power of the Disney brand.
