The Super Mario Galaxy Movie added $1.0M domestically on Day 55, bringing the US total to $424.7M and worldwide collections to $982.3M. The film is now $17.7M away from becoming 2026's first member of the billion-dollar club.
At $424.7M domestic, Mario Galaxy has already surpassed the original Super Mario Bros. Movie's $574M global total in domestic earnings alone. The film has become Universal's highest-grossing animated release ever, overtaking Minions ($1.16B global) when combining both markets.
The daily add of $1M in Week 8 isn't setting records, but the overseas pipeline still has gas โ several markets are in their third and fourth weeks with healthy holds. Japan alone has contributed over $80M and continues to add.
$982M worldwide. Not $982M "projected." Not $982M "tracking toward." The actual number is $982M, and $1 billion will arrive within the next two weeks.
Universal and Illumination have turned Nintendo's IP into a box office ATM. The inevitable sequel is already in development, and this performance guarantees it opens even bigger.
