[_Box Office Mojo_](http://www.boxofficemojo.com/alltime/world/) reports that _Furious 7_ has surpassed the worldwide gross of _Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 2_. The seventh _Fast & Furious_ film now stands at about $1.349 billion worldwide, while _Hallows: Part 2_ ended its run at $1.342 billion. The boy wizard is the latest to fall to _Furious 7_, [following a certain ice queen](http://www.ew.com/article/2015/04/26/box-office-report-furious-7-age-adaline). These totals are, of course, unadjusted for inflation. When that’s taken into account, _Deathly Hallows: Part 2_ would still sit above _Furious 7_ for the time being—but the global ticket sales for the action film represents the incredible forward momentum _Furious 7_ has carried in the month since its release. _Furious 7_ became the biggest film at [China’s box office](http://www.ew.com/article/2015/04/28/furious-7-china-highest-grossing-film-all-time), and will likely rank among the highest earners in the U.S. for 2015 when the year comes to a close. _Furious 7_’s dominance at the box office will fade this weekend, however, when _Avengers: Age of Ultron_ makes its bid for the crown. _Furious 7_ currently sits below the original _The Avengers_ on the unadjusted worldwide chart. So it should prove interesting to watch where _Avengers: Age of Ultron_ eventually ends up, and whether Marvel’s superhero team knows the rules of [a street fight](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kYfSM8RU3PY) as they go up against Dom and the team. _This_ [_article_](http://www.ew.com/article/2015/04/30/furious-7-surpasses-harry-potter-worldwide-box-office) _originally appeared on_ [_EW.com_](http://www.ew.com/)_._ ### These Are the 11 Best Bromances of All Time  Brian O'Conner and Dominic Toretto in The Fast and the Furious Universal  Turk and J.D. in Scrubs Justin Lubin—ABC/Getty Images  Spock and Kirk in Star Trek CBS/Getty Images  Woody and Buzz in Toy Story Pixar/Disney  Cory and Shawn in Boy Meets World ABC/Getty Images  Sulley and Mike Wazowski in Monsters, Inc.
