Hexed Worldwide Box Office: How Much Does Disney’s Animated Film Need To Beat Ne Zha 2 & Become The Biggest Animation Ever?

Hexed is the upcoming Disney original animation that is set to be released this Thanksgiving. The film naturally aims to become the all-time biggest animated film worldwide, and to do so, it must beat Ne Zha 2’s box-office record. The film faces a steep uphill climb to achieve this target at the worldwide box office. Keep scrolling for the numbers.

It is an original animation, and thus the exhibitors are more anxious. Original animations often fail to become blockbusters; some even do not reach their break-even targets. This is a film directed by Fawn Veerasunthorn and Jason Hand, written by Jared Bush and Dana Ledoux Miller.

How much will Hexed have to earn to become the biggest animation ever worldwide?

For the unversed, the Chinese animation Ne Zha 2 is the all-time highest-grossing animated feature worldwide. No other animated feature has ever earned $2 billion at the worldwide box office. According to Box Office Mojo, Ne Zha 2 collected $2.27 billion at the worldwide box office, becoming the 5th-highest-grossing movie ever.

Ne Zha 2 is also the only movie in the history of cinema worldwide to collect over $2 billion from a single market; in this case, the China box office, its home territory. It set several box office records that are rare and first. Hence, Hexed must have an outstanding box-office run to achieve this enormous feat of beating the Chinese mega-blockbuster and taking the crown for the all-time highest-grossing animated film worldwide.

More about the movie

According to reports, Hexed is tracking to score one of the biggest opening weekends for an original Disney animation of this decade. Early estimates suggest it is on track to collect $35 million-$45 million on its three-day opening weekend and $50 million-$70 million over the 5-day Thanksgiving weekend. A good word-of-mouth and holiday boost could help it beat Ne Zha 2, but with such a modest opening, Hexed is not expected to beat the former movie.

The film follows Billie, an impulsive and unconventional teenage girl who discovers magical abilities after being expelled from school. Her newfound powers take her from suburban life to Hexe, a mysterious realm of witches, where she teams up with her cautious mother, Alice, to uncover family secrets tied to the magical world. Hexed will be released on November 25.
