The month of July might go down in history for having delivered two movies that passed the coveted $1 billion mark at the worldwide box office. Christopher Nolan‘s The Odyssey is a tough sell to all four quadrants of the audience, but the filmmaker is coming off the astounding success of Oppenheimer, which was arguably even less of a sure thing. The three-hour R-rated biographical thriller exceeded all expectations to gross $975 million worldwide, in addition to winning the Best Picture honor at the Oscars and earning Nolan his first Best Director Academy Award. Later this month, Sony will release Spider-Man: Brand New Day, which should be in tremendous shape even if it grosses half of its predecessor’s nearly $2 billion worldwide haul. However, another movie is poised to beat The Odyssey and Spider-Man: Brand New Day to the $1 billion milestone.
The movie was released two weeks ago to massive box-office success and excellent reviews. It continues to hold the record for the biggest debut of 2026, with nearly $160 million domestically in three days. We’re talking, of course, about Toy Story 5. Directed by Pixar veteran Andrew Stanton, the movie holds a “Certified Fresh” 92% critics’ score and a “Verified Hot” 95% audience score on the aggregator website Rotten Tomatoes, where the consensus reads, “Proving that old toys can learn new tricks while reckoning with an era of endless screen time, Toy Story 5 largely sidesteps franchise fatigue by reaffirming that children everywhere still got a friend in these lovable characters.”
Here’s How Much ‘Toy Story 5’ Has Grossed at the Box Office So Far
Produced on a reported budget of $250 million, Toy Story 5 has grossed $880 million at the worldwide box office in two full weeks of release, and is poised to become the year’s third blockbuster to pass the $1 billion mark after The Super Mario Galaxy Movie and the Michael Jackson biopic, Michael. It’ll also become the third film in the three-decade-old Toy Story franchise, after Toy Story 3 and Toy Story 4, to hit the $1 billion mark. Only five Pixar movies have passed this milestone so far; besides the third and fourth Toy Story installments, Finding Dory, Inside Out 2, and Incredibles 2 are all a part of this esteemed club.
