Summary
- Gabby's Dollhouse: The Movie debuts at #1 in UK and Ireland

- Dreamworks Animation's first live-action film nears break-even target
On October 21, 2025, Gabby's Dollhouse: The Movie, based on the popular Netflix series, was finally released in the UK and Ireland. The film has not only opened at the top spot but also outshone Black Phone 2 in these two regions. The Dreamworks Animation creation directed by Ryan Crego is edging closer to its break-even target, and this strong debut might boost the film's overall box office performance.
The movie is reportedly Dreamworks Animation's first live-action film that is not a remake. It has received positive reviews and is chasing the $100 million milestone worldwide. The series on which this movie is based shows Gabby and her cat friends having adventures inside the dollhouse.
According to Comscore's data, Gabby's Dollhouse: The Movie collected £1.9 million, or an estimated $2.5 million, in the UK and Ireland on its debut weekend. This impressive performance allowed it to claim the top spot, beating the Black Phone 2 sequel, which debuted at #2 with $1.5 million. With Universal distributing both films, this is a great win for the studio.
