The Pixar sequel records one of the biggest three-day opening weekends of all time for Hollywood at the box office in Japan. Toy Story 5 has also registered the biggest attendance for Hollywood films in their opening weekends. The movie has surpassed its predecessor, posting the franchise’s best debut in Japan. Keep scrolling for the deets.

The film is inching closer to the $800 million milestone worldwide. If it remains strong in Japan, the movie will soon achieve solid global milestones. It is already the third-highest-grossing film of the year worldwide, but that could change in the upcoming weeks. Back home, it might not face much stronger competition from Minions 3, owing to its underperformance, which would mean it will have a better hold there too.

It posted 1.7 million admissions, the highest attendance ever for Hollywood films on their opening weekends. The Pixar movie has registered the biggest three-day debut of all time for Hollywood in local currency and the 10th biggest in USD. Sunday was reportedly the biggest-ever recorded by any Hollywood movie in Japan, in local currency.
