According to Deadline, the movie has already bested Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania, which previously had the best three-day box office sales for 2023. It is on track to fall behind only Incredibles 2 in the race to nab the best-selling debut for an animated picture in the United States and Canada.

On a global scale, The Super Mario Bros. Movie is expected to best a record held by Disney’s Frozen 2. As it edges closer to its projected earnings of $368 million, the movie is likely to beat the Frozen sequel’s $358 million opening and become the animated movie with the best global debut of all time.
