2023's Most Searched For Movies

 

Most Google searched film in 2023 - Barbie

With 2023 quickly drawing to a close, I thought it would be interesting to see which films garnered the most Google searches* during the year. It appears The Hollywood Reporter had the same idea. Anyway, here's the list:

#1 Barbie - the most searched movie for 2023. 

#2 Oppenheimer - a close runner-up to Barbie

#3 Jawan - a Bollywood production, this film received tens of millions of searches in India alone.

#4 Sound of Freedom - a political thriller and 2023's biggest box-office sleeper grossing over $215 million. 

#5 John Wick: Chapter 4 - searches galore for the 4th Wick installment.

#6 Avatar: Way of the Water - technically a 2022 release the film screened in late December, but continued to get searched throughout January 2023, as fans flocked to the 3D version.

#7 Everything Everywhere All at Once - this quirky indie film won multiple Oscars and was heavily searched pre and post release.
