How much does Sam Raimi need to break into the top 10 highest-grossing directors list worldwide?
To break into the top 10 highest-grossing directors list, it must surpass Tim Burton‘s global career total. Tim is also an esteemed filmmaker, unparalleled in the gothic genre. His 21 films have grossed $4.87 billion worldwide, making him the 10th-highest-grossing filmmaker of all time. Sam Raimi’s films still need around $580 million to overtake Tim Burton as the 10th-highest-grossing filmmaker worldwide.
Send Help is expected to be a box-office success, but it will not gross $580 million and help Raimi beat Tim Burton for the 10th rank. Hence, the Spider-Man director must wait a bit longer to achieve this amazing feat.
