HARRY POTTER MOVIES SURPASS STAR WARS, LORD OF THE RINGS

The Harry Potter movie franchise has now surpassed the Star Wars and the Lord of the Rings series as the highest money-raking series in Hollywood history. So far Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows – Part 2 has grossed over US$7 billion (R47 billion) world wide, and it’s still on circuit! JK Rowling is officially richer than the queen of England, and may soon be even richer than Bernie Ecclestone to become the richest person of any gender in the United Kingdom.


Individually, the worldwide grosses for the previous films stand as: Harry Potter and the Sorcerer’s Stone made US$975 million, Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets made US$879 million, Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban took US$797 million, Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire did US$897 million, Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix achieved US$940 million, Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince managed US$934 million and Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows – Part 1 at $955 million.

No. Part 2 did not make that much money. The series as a whole has made that much money. That sum individually is ridiculous.
