Box Office: 'Inside Out 2' Becomes Pixar Studios' Highest-Grossing Film Worldwide

Los Angeles, July 10 - After becoming the first billion-dollar grosser of the year, Pixar's mega-hit Inside Out 2 climbs another milestone as it has become the highest-grossing movie of Pixar Animation Studio at the global box office.

The sequel to Inside Out (2015) has been a box-office phenomenon since its debut on June 14 and is currently in the 4th week of its run. On its 4th Tuesday, IO2 has outgrossed Incredibles 2 ($1.24 billion) to become the biggest Pixar blockbuster globally.



After surpassing Incredibles 2, Inside Out 2 has also become the 4th highest-grossing animated movie of all time, behind Frozen 2 ($1.45 billion), The Super Mario Bros. Movie ($1.36 billion), and Frozen ($1.29 billion). IO2 is projected to finish its run with $1.45+ billion, which will make it the biggest animated grosser of all time.

As said, IO2 became the first billion-dollar grosser since Margot Robbie's Barbie in July 2023. It also scored the biggest opening of the year at the domestic as well as the worldwide box office after crushing the pre-release box office projections with a mighty $294 million worldwide opening weekend.

Inside Out (2015) did unthinkable to beat the projection as the box office hadn't been at its best this year for Hollywood. Pixar too was feeling the heat with back-to-back low scores since the Covid-19 pandemic but Inside Out 2 did what other movies couldn't to bring the studio back to its old glory.
