Box Office Round-Up ~ 6/22/26

The toys are back in town. Toy Story 5 was expected to do big numbers at the box office, but Disney/Pixar sequel’s opening weekend gross of $159 million is not only the best of the franchise (beating out Toy Story 4’s $140 million debut in 2019), it’s also the biggest opening weekend of the year so far, passing The Super Mario Galaxy Movie by almost $30 million. The Toy Story franchise is now over three decades removed from its groundbreaking 1995 original, but these kind of numbers almost certainly guarantee further adventures for Woody, Buzz, Jessie and co.

Toy Story 5’s success took a chunk out of pretty much every other movie in the top five. Disclosure Day moved to second place, grossing just $17.7 million in its second weekend. It will likely pass $100 million in the U.S. before the end of its theatrical run, but it’s not the bonafide hit one might expect from Steven Spielberg. On the flip side, Obsession remained in the top five for a sixth weekend, grossing $13.3 million to pass $200 million overall domestically. It’s now the fifth highest grossing release of the year, a massively impressive feat for a horror movie originally shot for under a million dollars.

Backrooms took fourth place with $7.1 million, finishing its first month in theaters with $175 million dollars domestically (which incidentally makes it the sixth highest grossing movie of the year, just behind Obsession). Scary Movie landed in fifth place in its third weekend, grossing $6.3 million to put it just shy of $100 million overall. The final week in June will very likely be Toy Story 5’s to lose, despite competition in the form of Supergirl, the follow-up to last year’s Superman in Warner Bros. and DC’s rebooted cinematic universe.
