The sequel, now in its eleventh week of release, added $7 million to its total and beats James Cameron's 1997 tragedy by $3 million, having raked in $659 million.
While Titanic is now in eighth place, Top Gun is now creeping up on sixth placed Avengers: Infinity War at $678 million and Black Panther with box office receipts of $700 million.

Films that have grossed even more including Avatar, Spiderman: No Way Home, Avengers: Endgame and Star Wars: The Force Awakens will likely not be surpassed, however it could well mean Top Gun: Maverick makes it into fifth place.
Top Gun is only the 12th film to ever cross the $600 million mark at the domestic box
