Tom Cruise starrer Top Gun Maverick movie has flown past `Avengers: Infinity War` as it has overtaken its collection of $678 million collecting $679 million in North America, reports Variety.

With this, the sequel to the 1986 film has become the sixth-highest grossing movie in US domestic box office history. According to Variety, it`s an especially impressive benchmark because 2018`s every-hero-but-the-kitchen-sink adventure `Avengers: Infinity War` had a little help in building up anticipation.

It served as part one (2019`s `Endgame` was part two) of Marvel`s epic culmination of more than 20 movies -- most of which were box office juggernauts in their own right -- over 10 years.

Sure, `Maverick` had Tom Cruise, a box office hero, in his own right. But moviegoers hadn`t felt the need for speed in more than 30 years; the sequel was far from a guaranteed hit. But, Tom Cruise has proven why he is one of the biggest movie stars on the planet.

Thanks to stellar word-of-mouth and repeat customers, `Maverick` continues to defy the odds. `Top Gun 2` is likely to continue selling tickets because the film does not have a ton of competition on the horizon.

Variety further states that it`ll be fairly desolate at the box office until November, when `Black Panther: Wakanda Forever` opens in theatres.

Internationally, `Top Gun: Maverick` has generated more than $700 million -- and that`s without playing in China or Russia, two major overseas markets.

Outside of North America, top-earning territories include the United Kingdom ($95 million), Japan ($82 million), Korea ($62 million), Australia ($60 million) and France ($52.8 million). Globally, it`s the 13th-highest grossing movie ever with $1.379 billion to date.
