Not too long ago, Disney was quite clear that Pixar was on the decline and that it was a brand that couldn’t lift its head up. Undoubtedly, a big part of the blame was on Disney itself, who had neglected the company and had released some of its original films directly on its streaming platform.
However, this year has clearly demonstrated that Pixar is in elite condition, and to prove it, all you have to do is take a look at the incredible data from Inside Out 2. The sequel to Pete Docter’s original film has just become the highest-grossing film of 2024, surpassing Dune 2 with over $724 million in box office revenue. Additionally, it’s the seventh film in history to gross over $100 million in its second weekend.
The Unrepeatable Data of Inside Out 2
The records continue to be broken if you consider that the movie has the best numbers among Pixar films, and everything indicates not only that it’ll soon become the studio’s highest-grossing film, but also that it could surpass Frozen 2 as the highest-grossing animated film in history.
