Hoppers Box Office: Where It Ranks Among Pixar's Last 5 Wide Theatrical Releases

Koimoi 1 week ago

Daniel Chong's latest directorial effort, Hoppers, is on the verge of completing two months in theaters. After opening to an impressive $45.3 million in North America, Pixar's latest animated release, Hoppers, has now grossed $164.8 million domestically.

In doing that, the sci-fi comedy is now miles ahead of Sony's animated sports comedy GOAT ($103.3 million) by a significant margin of $61.5 million at the domestic box office.

At the worldwide box office, Hoppers has earned $375.7 million so far and has a significant lead of around $185.3 million over GOAT's $190.4 million global haul, as per The Numbers. Since the Pixar film was made on an estimated $150 million budget, it needed to earn $375 million globally to break even at the box office, based on the commonly used 2.5x multiplier rule. This suggests that it has already generated a $0.7 million theatrical surplus over its estimated break-even point.

Hoppers - Box Office Summary

  • North America: $164.8 million
  • International: $210.9 million
  • Worldwide: $375.7 million

Now that the film has entered the later stages of its theatrical run, let's take a look at how it compares with the last five wide theatrical releases of Pixar (excluding streaming-first or direct-to-OTT releases).
