{{Year nav topic5|2020|film|radio|television|music}}

2020 in film is a history of events, which includes the highest-grossing films, award ceremonies, critics' lists of the best films of 2020, festivals, a list of country-specific lists of films released, and notable deaths.

Evaluation of the year

The year was greatly affected by the COVID-19 pandemic, with numerous films originally scheduled for theatrical release postponed or released on video-on-demand or streaming services. However, several film companies stopped reporting box-office numbers during this time due to the COVID-19 pandemic, and several films were still in theaters where guidelines were in place.{{Cite web|last=D'Alessandro|first=Anthony|date=2020-03-20|title=Comscore Pauses Weekend Box Office Reporting Amid Coronavirus Crisis|url=https://deadline.com/2020/03/box-office-reporting-suspended-comscore-coronavirus-1202889000/|access-date=2021-02-01|website=Deadline|language=en-US|archive-date=2020-04-14|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20200414030020/https://deadline.com/2020/03/box-office-reporting-suspended-comscore-coronavirus-1202889000/|url-status=live}} As a result, film grosses will increase if they are re-released in the future. This was also the first year since 2007 that no film grossed $1 billion.

  • For the first time in box office history, two non-American animated film productions (Asian films), Demon Slayer the Movie: Mugen Train from Japan and Jiang Ziya from China, have become the highest-grossing animated films of the year. This has been partly attributed to the COVID-19 pandemic.{{cite news |last1=Wit |first1=Alex Dudok de |title=Two Asian Features Are Now Competing To Top The Global Animation Box Office In 2020 |url=https://www.cartoonbrew.com/box-office-report/two-asian-features-are-now-competing-to-top-the-global-animation-box-office-in-2020-198348.html |access-date=7 December 2020 |work=Cartoon Brew |date=2 November 2020}} It is also the first time since 1987 that a non-American animated film (Japanese anime), Demon Slayer the Movie: Mugen Train, became the highest-grossing animated film of the year, and the first time an anime has made it to the top 10 highest-grossing films of the year worldwide.
  • 2020 was the first year since 2007 not to have a film gross $1 billion during its theatrical run, the first year since 2005 not to have a film gross over $900 million, and the first year since 2000 not to have a film gross over $600 million, due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
  • 2020 was the first year since 1995 in which no film was among the 20 highest-grossing films of all time at the time due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
