Summary

Toy Story 5 has made a remarkable debut at the Chinese box office, securing the largest post-pandemic opening for any Pixar film in the region. The animated sequel garnered $13.8 million within its initial two days of release, outperforming Toy Story 4's opening weekend earnings of $13.2 million.
Currently, Toy Story 5 has earned $71 million domestically and $58.3 million internationally, with a global total of $129.3 million. To surpass the lifetime box office gross of Toy Story 4 in China, which stands at $29.1 million, the new installment must exceed this amount.
Projections indicate that Toy Story 5 is on track to earn between $17-18 million during its opening weekend in China. This trajectory suggests it is well-positioned to outgross its predecessor by the end of its theatrical run in the country.
The film's plot centers on Woody, Buzz, and their friends facing a new challenge as a child named Bonnie becomes attached to a tablet, threatening traditional play and prompting the toys to prove their enduring relevance.
