Top 10 Biggest Mondays Ever For Animated Films (North America)

Incredibles 2: $23.6 million
Shrek 2: $23.4 million
Inside Out 2: $22.4 million
The Super Mario Bros. Movie: $20.1 million

Toy Story 5: $17.3 million
The Super Mario Galaxy Movie: $16.8 million
Minions: The Rise of Gru: $16.1 million
Toy Story 3: $15.6 million

Based on the above figures, Toy Story 5 has delivered the seventh-biggest Monday of all time at the domestic box office, outperforming The Super Mario Galaxy Movie’s $16.8 million first Monday collection. With that in mind, let’s find out how much more the fifth Toy Story installment needs to earn in North America to surpass The Super Mario Galaxy Movie’s domestic total and become the highest-grossing movie of 2026.

Toy Story 5 – Box Office Summary

North America: $177 million
International: $152 million
Worldwide: $329 million

The Super Mario Galaxy Movie – Box Office Summary

North America: $429.7 million
International: $577.5 million
Worldwide: $1.007 billion

What The Above Numbers Indicate

The above numbers suggest that Toy Story 5 still needs to earn over $252.7 million more to surpass the domestic total of The Super Mario Galaxy Movie, the current highest-grossing release of 2026 in North America.

Given its current momentum, Toy Story 5 is expected to cross the $200 million mark in North America within a couple of days. Moreover, it is also tracking to reach the $300 million figure at the domestic box office by the end of the June 26-28 weekend.

If Toy Story 5 maintains strong momentum with minimal weekend drops over the next 4-5 weeks, Pixar’s latest film appears to be in a good position to close the gap and become the top-grossing title of 2026 at the North American box office. Having said that, the final box office outcome will become clear in the coming weeks as it continues its theatrical run.
