It was also the highest grossing movie of 2003 and for New Line Cinema as a whole. Like the two previous films, The Return of the King was a major box office success, grossing over $1.119 billion worldwide, making it the highest-grossing Middle-earth film out of all six and was the second highest-grossing film of all time at the time of its release (behind Titanic). The first two films were The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring and The Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers, although the third film's story includes later events in the section of the book The Two Towers as well as most of The Return of the King. The film won 11 Academy Awards at the 2004 Oscar ceremony including Best Picture, sharing the world record for most academy awards received with Ben-Hur and Titanic, and also was the first fantasy film to win Best Picture. Globally, the film is one of the highest grossing films in cinema history. The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King is the third and final film in The Lord of the Rings trilogy, directed by Peter Jackson and based on J.R.R.
