Summary
- GOAT needs $200 million globally to break even.

- GOAT is close to surpassing the original Scream's domestic total.

GOAT, an animated sports comedy, is on the cusp of a significant box office achievement. The film, which requires approximately $200 million globally to break even against its $80 million production budget, currently trails this target by about $18.1 million. As of the current date, it has already surpassed the domestic box office performance of "Scream 2," which earned $101.4 million in 1997.
The animated feature is also rapidly closing in on the domestic total of the original 1996 "Scream." While GOAT has exceeded "Scream" in worldwide earnings, it trails slightly in domestic performance by about $1.5 million. Analysts predict GOAT could overtake "Scream's" North American total during the April 3-5 weekend, with final figures expected in the coming days.
The narrative centers on Will, a young goat voiced by Caleb McLaughlin, who dreams of professional roarball stardom. Set in a world of anthropomorphic animals, Will faces formidable challenges in a sport dominated by larger, faster creatures. His journey highlights the triumph of determination and heart over physical limitations.
