Disney and Pixar brought a big dose of joy to the box office this weekend.
“Inside Out 2” debuted with an estimated $155 million domestically, the second-highest theatrical opening of an animated film and the first film since Warner Bros.′ “Barbie” to top $100 million during its debut.
Of note, Disney does not consider its 2019 live-action remake of “The Lion King,” which generated $191.7 million during its debut, an animation film.
“Inside Out 2” is expected to haul in $295 million globally for the weekend.
“Let’s issue a collective ‘welcome back’ to Disney, Pixar, and the summer box office,” said Shawn Robbins, founder and owner of Box Office Theory.”
