According toofficial Box Office datafollowingInside Out 2’s continued financial success, the Disney sequel has now become one of thetop 10 Disney Movies at the US Box Office ever. Prior to the movie’s release, spots number 10 and 9 were both held by recentStar Warsinstallments, namelyStar Wars: The Rise of SkywalkerandRogue One: A Star Wars Story. Both films were enormous Box Office triumphs, withInside Out 2eventually topping them and entering the exclusive list at number 9 after less than one month in theaters. Currently, the difference betweenThe Rise of SkywalkerandInside Out 2is just $300,000. However, the latter’s continued success will only see that gap continue to widen. Next to catch at number eight is the 2019 live-action remake ofThe Lion King, withthe two separated by only $10 million domestically. However, withThe Lion Kingproving much more fruitful on the world stage, the difference between the pair globally is a staggering $400 million.
Currently,Inside Out 2’s Box Office return worldwide equals over $1.2 billion, making it thehighest-earning film of 2024 so far. Also, the sequel has becomePixar’s second-biggest hit globally, trailing onlyIncredibles 2. After a frustrating start to the 2024 summer Box Office,Inside Out 2’s arrival on screens revitalized the industry, proving that animation is the winner this year. Alongside the likes ofBad Boys: Ride or Die, the highly-anticipated return of the world’s most famous animated emotions has caused the panic to subside within the industry, at least for now.
‘Inside Out 2’ Has Found It’s Rival at the 2024 Summer Box Office
If this summer has taught us anything, it is that afun-loving animated family adventure based on an existing IPis the way to go for financial success. Inside Out 2is still the most dominant of the releases thus far, but the very recent addition ofDespicable Me 4to the race has caused a surprising but financially fruitful battle to commence. Despite some fears that the two films would cancel each other out, the most recent weekend has proven the truth to bemore akin to the Barbenheimer saga of 2023.
BothInside Out 2andDespicable Me 4have been unstoppable so far at the Box Office, with the latter threatening to de-throne the former. Although it has some way to go,the franchise has previous when it comes to billion-dollar blockbusters, with the movie certainly projected to fly. However, projections suggest it will still fall short of its Pixar rival, although, when it comes to the success of the animated movie industry, a win for one is a win for all.
