The year 2024 brought a flood of new movies and TV shows to theaters, broadcast networks, and streaming platforms.

Here's a look at the most-searched items across the world of entertainment in 2024.

Movies and Television: When looking for information on television shows and movies, consumers often turn to Google, the search engine owned by Alphabet Inc (NASDAQ:GOOG) (NASDAQ:GOOGL), the same place where they searched for information on trending topics like the Olympics and 2024 presidential election.

These were the top 10 most-searched movies on Google in 2024:

1. Inside Out 2
2. Deadpool & Wolverine
3. Saltburn
4. Beetlejuice Beetlejuice
5. Dune: Part Two
6. It Ends with Us
7. Oppenheimer
8. Kung Fu Panda 4
9. Alien: Romulus
10. Terrifier 3

"Saltburn" ranked third, which might be thanks to some viral scenes in the movie from Amazon.com Inc (NASDAQ:AMZN), released in theaters and streamed on Prime Video.

Warner Bros. Discovery (NASDAQ:WBD) had several films on the list with "Beetlejuice Beetlejuice" and "Dune: Part Two," which rank sixth and seventh for domestic box office revenue for the year.

Comcast Corporation (NASDAQ:CMCSA) also has several films on the list with "Oppenheimer" and "Kung Fu Panda 4."

On the television front, Google’s top searches focused on streaming shows. Here are the 10 most-searched TV shows worldwide in 2024:
