Hollywood has leaned on sequels and remakes for a decade. This asks whether an original story tops the year.
Resolves YES if the highest worldwide-grossing film of 2026 is not a sequel, prequel, remake, reboot or spin-off, and is not adapted from an existing film franchise.

Settles on 31 December 2026, on the chart as it stands that day.
An adaptation of a book, game or true story still counts as original for this market, provided it is not part of an existing film series.
