Barbie’s Unstoppable Triumph: Astonishing $600 Million Milestone Reached in Just 6 Weekends!
Mufasa: The Lion King has surpassed expectations and achieved a significant milestone by crossing the $600 million mark at the global box office. The Disney feature, directed by Barry Jenkins, is not only eyeing a global run of over $700 million but is also gaining momentum with impressive box office performance both domestically and internationally.
In the United States, Mufasa: The Lion King has managed to surpass Timothee Chalamet’s Wonka in its sixth weekend by collecting $8.7 million, bringing its domestic total to $221.1 million. It took the #2 spot on the domestic box office chart, sitting just behind Mark Wahlberg’s latest release. The movie experienced a minimal dip of only -27.8% from the previous weekend despite playing in 135 fewer theaters.
Internationally, the animated feature has continued its strong performance, earning $15.4 million during its sixth weekend overseas, with just a -24.3% decline from the previous weekend. This brings its international total to an impressive $405.6 million across 53 markets. Combining its domestic and international earnings, Mufasa: The Lion King boasts a worldwide total of $626.7 million, significantly surpassing its estimated $200 million production budget by 213.35%.
With its current pace, the film is predicted to earn between $250 million and $260 million in the U.S. alone. However, its box office journey might face challenges with the upcoming release of Marvel’s Captain America: Brave New World.
Since its release on December 20, Mufasa: The Lion King has captivated audiences worldwide, and continues to be a viral sensation, positioning itself as a notable success for Disney.
