The Conjuring 4 is less than $1 million away from surpassing the worldwide haul of How to Train Your Dragon. Therefore, it will also achieve the #265 rank in the all-time worldwide rankings. It might not be able to hit the $500 million milestone, as Wicked: For Good and Zootopia 2 will also be released during the Thanksgiving holiday.
