As predicted, the worldwide box office for Universal, Illumination, and Nintendo’s The Super Mario Bros. Movie has surpassed one billion dollars. Since Frozen 2 in 2019, it is the first animated film to gross a billion dollars. The picture had a tremendous opening weekend at the worldwide box office. It grossed 377 million dollars in its first extended weekend, well above expectations. It surpassed Frozen 2 as the biggest opening weekend-grossing animated picture. Till April 30th, the film had grossed 490 million dollars in the United States and Canada, and over 530 million dollars in other territories, for a total of 1.022 billion dollars.
The Super Mario Bros. Movie has come a long way at the box office. The picture was expected to do well, but its real performance has astonished everyone. In reality, it has now joined the ranks of Avatar 2, Top Gun: Maverick, and other Hollywood blockbusters as the post-covid era’s $1 billion grosser.
The Super Mario Bros. Highest-Grossing Film Of 2023
The Super Mario Bros. Movie has already become the highest-grossing film of 2023. In addition, it is the highest-grossing video game film of all time, demonstrating the brand’s appeal. The brand’s popularity grows by the day. It is the 11th animated feature and the 52nd film in history to reach the billion-dollar mark, and we may expect a few more movies to join this exclusive club by the end of the year.
The film’s remarkable performance inspires filmmakers to believe audiences are ready to turn out in droves for films worth their time and money. With the introduction of OTT, it appeared that drawing crowds to theatres was tough, yet several films could do well despite the stiff competition faced by streaming services.
Journey Of The Super Mario Bros. Movie
The film is directed by Aaron Horvath and Michael Jelenic and stars Chris Pratt, Anya Taylor-Joy, Charlie Day, Jack Black, and others. The film received mixed reviews from critics at its initial release on April 5th. However, word-of-mouth has been positive, and as a result, strong momentum has been maintained for several weeks. Another advantage was the availability of premium formats such as IMAX and 4DX.
With the way The Super Mario Bros. Movie is trending, it appears like the film has an outstanding possibility of breaking into the top 25 most-grossing films of all time. Currently, The Super Mario Bros. movie is the 8th highest-grossing animated movie of all time. However, there is an outside chance that it will come in the top 5 highest-grossing animated movies of all time.
