With the global film industry constantly evolving, it's always fascinating to see which movies rise to the occasion and capture the audience's attention. The year 2024 has already shown some intriguing trends, with a few films making a particularly strong impression at the box office.
Following an impressive debut weekend, speculation grew about whether Despicable Me 4 would emerge as the next major hit. While the Illumination sequel is performing admirably, it hasn't quite captured the spotlight.
Meanwhile, Inside Out 2 has continued to dominate the global box office, now surpassing $1.35 billion in earnings. This remarkable achievement ranks the animated film as the 17th highest-grossing movie of all time. It's also on the verge of overtaking The Super Mario Bros. Movie, which currently stands as the second highest-grossing film of 2023.
At this rate, Inside Out 2 is only about $100 million away from eclipsing both Barbie and Frozen 2. If it accomplishes this feat, 2024 will boast a higher-grossing film than 2023, and Inside Out 2 will be heralded as the most successful animated movie ever.
As for Despicable Me 4, it holds the position of the fifth-highest-grossing film of 2024, having earned $437 million to date. This places it comfortably ahead of A Quiet Place: Day One, which appears to have plateaued at around $220 million. Longlegs, despite its smaller production budget, has performed exceptionally well, earning $20 million in its first weekend across the UK and USA.
How much longer can Inside Out 2 sustain its impressive box office run? The cinematic community watches eagerly to find out the final tally.
