Summary
$1 billion in global ticket sales has pushed The Super Mario Galaxy Movie into the year’s top tier, while lifting the two-film Mario franchise to $2.30 billion worldwide.
$428.5 million came from domestic theaters and $571.5 million from overseas, making it the highest-grossing movie of 2026 so far and the top MPA release internationally.
Three straight weekends at No. 1 globally and overseas helped drive that total, extending the film’s strong start after posting the year’s best opening day and the best April Wednesday debut.
The $2.30 billion franchise total ranks Mario ninth among animated franchises worldwide, and the sequel is now the second-highest-grossing video game adaptation behind The Super Mario Bros. Movie.
