Pixar's Inside Out 2 Reigns Supreme as Top-Grossing Animated Film
- IndiaGlitz, [Thursday,July 25 2024]
Disney is commemorating a significant turning point since Inside Out 2 has topped Frozen II in terms of most grossing animated feature.
In just six weeks, Inside Out 2 has earned a worldwide total of $1.46 billion from domestically $ 601 million and internationally $ 861 million. This exceeds Frozen II, which made $1.45 billion over its 2019 theater run. Especially, although Disney's 2019 The Lion King brought in $1.65 billion, it is categorized as live-action, so it does not show in the animated picture rankings.
Globally, Inside Out 2 ($1.446 billion) has exceeded Barbie ($1.446 billion) to rank 13th among all time highest grossing films. Reaching the $1 billion mark in just 19 days, the Pixar sequel also set a record as the fastest animated picture. It is the sole film this year that qualifies for the billion-dollar club and the highest grossing film of 2024.
The popularity of the original 2015 movie, good word-of-mouth, and its general appeal help to explain the success of Inside Out 2. Originally Inside Out brought in $858 million worldwide, a sum the sequel exceeded in just a few weeks.
Filmed under a $200 million budget, the PG-rated Inside Out 2 has revived Pixar's box office turnout. Both viewers and critics have given the sequel great marks, which has bolstered ticket sales. Riley's psyche is revisited in the movie, now as an adolescent, with her familiar feelings Joy ( Amy Poehler), Sadness (Phyllis Smith), and Anger (Lewis Black). The interesting plot of the movie is enhanced by new emotions including Anxiety (Maya Hawke), Envy (Ayo Edebiri), Embarrassment (Paul Walter Hauser), and Nostalgia (June Squibb).
