Overview
- Studio estimates released Sunday, June 21, put Toy Story 5’s domestic three‑day opening at $160 million, the biggest weekend debut of 2026 so far.
- The film earned an estimated $152 million overseas, giving it a $312 million worldwide opening for the Friday‑through‑Sunday window.
- That domestic total beats Toy Story 4’s launch and ranks as Pixar’s second‑largest animated opening behind Incredibles 2.
- Early critical and audience response has been strong, with a high Rotten Tomatoes score and an A CinemaScore, which industry analysts say should help the film sustain ticket sales beyond opening weekend.
- With a reported $250 million production budget not including global marketing, the launch bolsters Disney/Pixar’s merchandising and sequel strategy and will be watched for reconciled Monday totals and longer‑term box‑office legs.
