Lilo & Stitch blasted back onto the big screen, grabbing the 2025 box office spotlight alongside the much-hyped Minecraft Movie. Disney’s live-action take on the beloved story rocketed past Tom Cruise’s Mission Impossible – The Final Reckoning, sprinting ahead right from the first weekend. For two weeks, no other movie could catch up and even when it slipped for a single day, Lilo & Stitch bounced back to claim the number one spot again.

Mission Impossible’s 1996 Box Office Compared
Lilo and Stitch has also doubled what the first Mission: Impossible made back in 1996, when the Tom Cruise classic ended its run at $457 million globally. In 1996, Mission: Impossible turned its $80 million budget into a massive win for Paramount, returning more than five times what was spent. That movie earned $180.9 million in the US and $276.7 million internationally, but Lilo and Stitch’s performance has raised the bar even higher.
- Domestic – $180.9m
- International – $276.7m
