Its global total makes it the biggest opening of 2023 and the second biggest three-day domestic animated opening (behind Finding Dory). With an estimated US$173 million in international earnings and a global total of US$377 million, Mario broke records for video game adaptations (passing Warcraft’s US$210 million) and animated films (Frozen 2’s US$358 million). The animated offering from Universal and Illumination powered up with US$204.6 million (S$272.3 million) in its first five days in 4,343 North American theatres, including US$146.4 million over the weekend, according to studio estimates on Sunday (Apr 9).
