The Super Mario Galaxy Movie is projected to achieve a remarkable opening weekend, with North American box office earnings estimated between $175 million and $185 million. This figure is based on a five-day Easter holiday weekend projection.
Internationally, the film is expected to gross a similar $175 million to $185 million during its debut. These combined projections place the global opening weekend forecast between $350 million and $370 million, positioning it as the year's biggest opening to date.
This sequel to the 2023 hit aims to rival "Frozen 2's" $358 million global opening. However, it faces the challenge of surpassing its predecessor, "The Super Mario Bros Movie," which earned an impressive $377 million globally. The film's narrative centers on Mario and Luigi's intergalactic adventure with Yoshi, Princess Peach, and Toad, as they confront Bowser and Bowser Jr.
The movie's ensemble cast includes returning stars Chris Pratt and Anya Taylor-Joy, joined by newcomers Benny Safdie, Donald Glover, and Brie Larson. "Super Mario Galaxy" is set for release on April 1st, 2026.
