This is not surprising, considering a number of films that have attracted mass attention, such as "Lilo & Stitch" ($371.7 million) and Marvel Studios' "Captain America: Brave New World" ($200.5 million). Even those that haven't reached their full potential are providing a big cushion, such as Marvel's "Thunderbolts*" ($188.9 million) and "Snow White" ($87.2 million).
But Warner Bros. has grossed $906.9 million as of yesterday from eight films. With F1, James Gunn's "Superman," and "Weapon" on board for the next month and a half, the company is reportedly poised to gross over $1 billion in the US box office by Labor Day.

Universal and Focus, with 17 new and last year's releases, collected $411.4 million in third place.
