However, though Star Trek is the most successful TV SCi FI franchise it is important to understand that STAR WARS is the most successful Movie SCI FI Franchise which is interesting too (at least to me and possibly you too!)
begin quote from AI Overview
The Star Wars franchise is estimated to be worth between $46.7 billion and $65 billion in total value. Historically, the franchise has generated roughly $46.7 billion in lifetime gross revenue across all media platforms, securing its spot as one of the highest-grossing media franchises in history.
Because
intellectual property (IP) value takes future earnings and brand
strength into account, modern financial analysts value the brand as a
standalone asset closer to the $65 billion mark.
Revenue Breakdown
“The
largest portion comes from merchandise sales at $29 billion (£21.9bn),
followed by $10.3 billion (£7.8bn) at the box office...” -- Yahoo Finance UK
The financial footprint of the galaxy far, far away breaks down into these distinct streams:
- Merchandise & Retail: $29.05 billion. Toys, clothing, collectibles, and licensing deals make up the absolute majority of the franchise's wealth.
- Box Office: $10.34 billion. This includes the original trilogy, prequels, Disney-era sequel trilogies, spin-offs, and the 2026 theatrical release The Mandalorian & Grogu.
