Furious 7 passes Harry Potter on top-grossing movie list

Furious 7 has raced past another huge franchise movie after overtaking Harry Potter And The Deathly Hallows: Part 2 as the fourth-highest grossing movie of all time.

Vin Diesel's Furious 7 has raked in $1.35 billion at the global box office, edging out the eighth and final film in the blockbuster wizard series for fourth place.

Furious 7's latest earnings also make the sequel Universal Studio's highest-grossing film ever.

The fast-paced movie recently surpassed Frozen on the list, but still trails behind Avatar, which leads the all-time list with just under $2.8 billion, followed by Titanic and The Avengers.

Last month (Apr15), Diesel announced plans for a Furious 8, which will hit cinemas in April, 2017.
