How much did Lilo & Stitch earn at the North American box office in 13 days?
As reported yesterday, Disney’s magnum opus saw a massive jump on its second Tuesday (day 12) due to the discounted ticket rates and earned a solid $8.5 million. After this jump, the drop was on the cards on Wednesday, but still, it managed an excellent hold. On the second Wednesday, it scored $5.4 million, which is a slight jump from Monday’s $5.3 million.
With such a firm grip at ticket windows, Lilo & Stitch has smashed $298.1 million at the North American box office in 13 days, as per Box Office Mojo. From here, the film will comfortably chase the $400 million milestone and go further.
Tom Cruise’s Top Gun: Maverick was also released during the Memorial Day weekend and emerged as a massive blockbuster in 2022. It ended the run at $718.7 million. Compared to the reported budget of $170 million, the film enjoyed 322.76% returns (ROI) at the North American box office.
The reported budget for Lilo & Stitch is $100 million. Against this cost, the film has earned $298.1 million and made 198.1% returns so far. To beat Top Gun: Maverick, it needs to make 323% returns, and that’s possible with a total of $423 million. So, Disney’s biggie needs $124.9 million more to cross Maverick, which is very much achievable.
Beating a blockbuster like Top Gun: Maverick in domestic returns will be a big thing, and it’ll be interesting to see how quickly Disney’s live-action animated film achieves the feat.
