The Disney animation has now made $1.072 billion globally, beating Toy Story 3‘s previous record of $1.063 billion in 2010, according to Boxofficemojo.com.
Frozen, loosely based on Hans Christian Andersen fairytale The Snow Queen, opened in North America on November 27.
The musical film has made $398.4 million in North America plus $674 million at the global box office.
Frozen, which stayed in the top 10 in the US and Canada film chart for more than three months, is now also the 10th biggest grossing film in box office history.
The movie scooped two Oscars earlier this year, winning the awards for best animated feature and best original song.
However, according to the Hollywood Reporter, Frozen is facing stiff competition from Warner Bros and Village Roadshow’s The Lego Movie, which was released in February and has already made more than $400 million globally – the first film of 2014 to do so.
And The Lego Movie has not opened everywhere yet – it is due to be released in Australia on Thursday and in Germany next week.
Meanwhile, Frozen‘s soundtrack has also been a huge success – it is currently top of the US Billboard chart and sold 202,000 copies last week, according to figures from Nielsen SoundScan.
