Which Scorsese film is his highest-grossing worldwide?

Martin Scorsese’s highest-grossing film worldwide is The Wolf of Wall Street.

Released in 2013, the film stars Leonardo DiCaprio as Jordan Belfort, whose memoir provides the basis for its account of greed, fraud, excess, and collapse in the 1990s brokerage world. Jonah Hill, Margot Robbie, Matthew McConaughey, and Kyle Chandler appear in major roles.

The film earned approximately $406.9 million worldwide, including about $116.9 million in the United States and Canada and $289 million internationally. That total placed it above Scorsese’s other major commercial successes, including Shutter Island, The Departed, and Hugo.

The answer can be confused with Scorsese’s most critically celebrated or award-winning films, such as Taxi Driver, Raging Bull, or The Departed. “Highest-grossing” refers to worldwide box-office revenue, not inflation-adjusted value, profitability, awards, or cultural importance. The film was also notable for its extreme language, drug use, sexual content, and controversial treatment of its characters’ behavior.
