‘Inside Out 2’ Stays No. 1 While ‘Quiet Place: Day One’ Opens to Strong $53 Million at Box Office

Disney/Pixar’s “Inside Out 2” continued to show spectacular holds at the box office, staying en route to its third No. 1 weekend with a $56 million total as it staves off a franchise record $53 million opening from Paramount’s “A Quiet Place: Day One.”

By the end of this weekend, “Inside Out 2” will have passed $450 million in domestic grosses and will cross $1 billion worldwide sometime during the extended July 4 weekend.

While the sequel may start seeing steeper drops due to competition from “Despicable Me 4,” it is on pace to pass $600 million in domestic grosses and set a new animation record before inflation adjustment when it passes the $608 million of fellow 2018 Pixar film “Incredibles 2.”
