mystery Posted July 16, 2022 Share Posted July 16, 2022 (edited) Incorrect. Rachel Portman is the #1 female composer. She is at 1.841b from all of her films. The website from which the information is sourced is incorrect and a quick check to Wikipedia of all films she composed for puts her at that number. Pinar Toprak holds the #2 spot from what I can tell. She is at 1.355b and composed for Captain Marvel and The Lost City. They sourced their info from the-numbers website which didn't list The Lost City gross of 190m in addition to Captain Marvel. If she scores The Marvels as well she will keep the #2 status.

DoctorIce Posted July 16, 2022 Share Posted July 16, 2022 A winner. She is also the first and only woman to ever win a BAFTA for Best Original Music. It's like the saw how male-dominated this part of the industry was and said NO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trainsskyscrapers Posted July 16, 2022 Share Posted July 16, 2022 I'll believe it when I see it.

Hopefully she moves up on Forbes this year with this new music and her tour. Her fans need a win right now between their second favorite artist doing so well without a video and OneRepublic eclipsing Gaga's success on the soundtrack.

I think she is fine with her soundtrack Song that charted more weeks than others pop girls film songs (and sell more) + her Summer STADIUM tour beginning tomorrow Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pollstar is a very unforgiving publication, and both people you're alluding to above not only have robust non-soundtrack + soundtrack numbers, but have the potential to take the crown as the highest-grossing female touring artists of all time.

alejandreaux Posted July 16, 2022 Share Posted July 16, 2022 (edited) it’s cringey how excited y’all are to report that the website got the information wrong lmao as if it’s such a huge L that she’s still a $1B+ film composer who made it into the top 3 of all time with just 1 movie on her first try. you really got her! OT: the way she left this kind of a mark on the film industry in such a short time is still so wild to me. 4 years ago her film report card literally consisted of 2 cameos in flop movies and that’s it now she’s the award-winning star of multiple box office smashes, consistently considered the standout performance alongside other acting heavyweights in hit films, and is now one of the highest-grossing film composers ever. her MIND amazes me sometimes Edited July 16, 2022 by alejandreaux Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would like to see her compose an orchestral soundtrack for a film completely by herself if she is that powerful to do this on her first try, according to you. I don't doubt her talent of course but it is still funny to see it compared. Who said anything about excitement? The Twitter accounts and everyone jumped on the news without bothering to double check the information. What is being called out is that it is wrong, that is all. She will still challenge for #2 and that is an amazing achievement anyways. Also the second highlighted portion is wrong as well, other films that grossed more than A Star Is Born and starred a musician are: 1.663b - The Lion King (2019) - Beyonce 1.024b - Zootopia - Shakira 865m - The Hunger Games: Catching Fire - Lenny Kravitz 694m - The Hunger Games - Lenny Kravitz 634m - Sing - Tori Kelly 592m - Tangled - Mandy Moore 528m - Hotel Transylvania 3: Summer Vacation - Selena Gomez 527m - Dunkirk - Harry Styles 522m - Meet the Fockers - Barbara Streisand 474m - Hotel Transylvania 2 - Selena Gomez Can you point me towards the multiple box office hits she starred in? I only seem to recall A Star Is Born. Unless you are considering that Machete Kills - 17m gross on a 20m budget Sin City: A Dame to Kill For - 39m on a 65m budget House of Gucci - 156m on a 75m budget (barely breaking even, if that and failed awards bait) are box office "hits"...
