Overview
- The Super Mario Galaxy Movie has surpassed Project Hail Mary to lead 2026’s North American box office, reaching about $239.1 million after nine days, according to Deadline’s Thursday figures.
- Industry trackers expect a $60–$70 million second U.S. weekend, which would be a drop of roughly 47%–54% from its $131.7 million three-day debut, with the film retaining IMAX and other premium large-format screens.
- Global grosses total about $446 million by the end of its first full week, with outlets noting it is tracking toward the all-time top five video-game adaptations as it eyes Warcraft’s $439 million lifetime mark.
- Universal’s counterprogramming play You, Me & Tuscany earned $750,000 in previews and is projected to open in the high single digits, offering a lower-budget option for date-night crowds.
- In India, the film logged a modest opening week around Rs. 6.50 crore, illustrating uneven regional momentum even as overall turnout remains strong worldwide.
