INSIDE OUT 2 Becomes Pixar's Highest-Grossing Film Ever Worldwide Grossing $1.251B+
Pixar’s blockbuster sequel Inside Out 2 has become the studio’s highest-grossing film of all time raking in $1.251B+ worldwide, just so far, since its June 14th release date.
On Tuesday, it passed Pixar’s Incredibles 2 ($1.243B) to get to this latest milestone. This accomplishment makes the Kelsey Mann-directed juggernaut the No. 4 animated film ever on a worldwide basis. And this is even before Japan’s opening on August 1st.
Riley, Joy, Anxiety, Fear, Ennui and the rest next have Frozen in their sights, looking to overtake its $1.285B in the next few days — likely over the weekend — to become the No. 3 animated film of all time globally.
Inside Out 2 remains the No. 17 industry film of all time domestically, as well as the No. 3 animated movie ever domestically, and we are only one month in with plenty more summer time viewings to go. It will be cool to see where in the record books the film ends up.
In the sequel: “The little voices inside Riley's head know her inside and out—but next summer, everything changes. Pixar's Inside Out 2 returns to the mind of newly minted teenager Riley as headquarters is undergoing a sudden demolition to make room for something entirely unexpected: new Emotions!
“Joy, Sadness, Anger, Fear and Disgust, who've long been running a successful operation by all accounts, aren't sure how to feel when Anxiety shows up. And it looks like she's not alone.”
The movie was directed by Kelsey Mann and it stars Amy Poehler as Joy, Phyllis Smith as Sadness, Lewis Black as Anger, Tony Hale as Fear, and Liza Lapira as Disgust, as well as Maya Hawke as Anxiety, Paul Walter Hauser as Embarrassment, Ayo Edebiri as Envy, and Adèle Exarchopoulos as Ennui.
