The Super Mario Galaxy Movie has made a spectacular entry into theaters, achieving a record-breaking $372.5 million in global box office sales, the largest opening of 2026 thus far. The animated sequel debuted with approximately $130.9 million in domestic earnings over its first three days, and nearly $190 million during the extended five-day holiday period. Its international performance added around $182.4 million, solidifying its position as one of the top five animated film debuts in cinematic history. Directed by Michael Jelenic and Aaron Horvath, the film leveraged the Easter holiday for strong family attendance, averaging nearly $30,000 per theater across more than 4,000 venues. The success of this film follows the impressive performance of the 2023 Super Mario Bros. Movie, which grossed over $1.3 billion worldwide. With a star-studded voice cast including Chris Pratt and Anya Taylor-Joy, the franchise's popularity is expected to drive continued box office success in the coming weeks.
