Pixar's latest movie Inside Out 2 has broken box office records on its opening weekend. Estimates suggest it landed $295m (£232.6m) globally in its first few days of release, which is the strongest opening of an animated movie ever.
In the US, it took in $155m, meaning that it has overtaken Dune 2 as the highest box office opener of the year. Perhaps even more impressively, this is the biggest opening of a film since Barbie too back in 2023. That film went on to gross more than a billion dollars worldwide – a feat Disney will be hoping to follow.
