Inside Out 2 has set a new record as the highest-grossing animated film of all time, achieving $1.46 billion globally just six weeks after its release. The sequel to the 2015 film has surpassed the previous record held by Frozen II, which earned $1.45 billion, and has also outperformed last year's hit Barbie, which grossed $1.44 billion. While Inside Out 2 ranks as the 13th highest-grossing film overall, it still trails behind Disney’s 2019 live-action remake of The Lion King, which grossed $1.65 billion. The film garnered $601 million domestically and $861 million internationally, with Japan yet to see its release. Its successful performance marks a significant comeback for Pixar, following a period of underwhelming releases during the pandemic. Inside Out 2 explores the emotional journey of a teenager named Riley, introducing new characters alongside the original emotions.
