“Inside Out 2” is absolutely crushing the box office, setting the stage to potentially rack up close to $100 million in just its second weekend, a feat only achieved by Barbie last year. But that’s not all! The Pixar sequel is not playing mind games at all, it’s setting records. The film has already zoomed past “Dune: Part Two,” snagging the crown as 2024’s top movie in North America’s box office.
INSIDE OUT 2 earned $62 million on Friday, the second biggest animated opening day of all time behind INCREDIBLES 2. 💰

Across the pond, “Inside Out 2” is moving just as fiercely! With a whopping $226.7 million already in the kitty internationally by Thursday. By the end of the weekend, we might be looking at a total global collection between $650 million and $700 million. Even though “Dune: Part Two” still holds the crown as the highest-grossing movie globally, it’s clear that “Inside Out 2” is rising meteorically.
To conclude, “Bad Boys: Ride or Die” stays at No.2 in North America, with an estimated $18.4 million in its third weekend for a domestic revenue of nearly $150 million through Sunday. In contrast, “The Exorcism” is turning into a box office horror, scoring an abysmal D CinemaScore and marking one of the weakest cinema openings this year.
