Disney/Pixar’s Inside Out 2 has proven to be a massive success at the box office, grossing an impressive $902.9M globally through Friday. This includes $429M from the domestic market and $473.9M from the international box office. Surpassing the $1B milestone is expected in the coming days, making Inside Out 2 the fastest animated movie to reach this milestone.
The sequel achieved a remarkable feat by surpassing the original film’s lifetime global earnings of $859M in just 16 days of release. Inside Out 2 now stands as the No. 19 animated film worldwide. It also secured a spot in the all-time domestic animated Top 10, claiming the 9th position with $411.8M, surpassing even the popular film Frozen.
Despite challenges in certain markets such as Russia, where Hollywood titles have not been releasing since early 2022, Inside Out 2 has managed to exceed the first film’s global run in a relatively short period. The absence of Japan in the sequel’s current release plans further highlights its impressive performance, with the market set to receive the film on August 1.
Continued Success and Future Milestones
With the upcoming figures set to be released, Inside Out 2 is on track to surpass the $900M mark worldwide. There is a strong possibility that the blockbuster will cross the $1B mark by the weekend, solidifying its position as the fastest animated movie ever to achieve this milestone. The film’s success in new overseas markets, such as New Zealand, further cements its popularity and strong performance.
The top 10 overseas markets for Inside Out 2 through Thursday include Mexico ($71.1M), UK ($32.9M), Korea ($32.2M), Brazil ($28M), Italy ($26.3M), Germany ($20.1M), Spain ($20M), Argentina ($17M), France ($17M), and China ($15.2M). These figures demonstrate the film’s widespread appeal and strong reception among international audiences.
