‘Moana 2’ Sails Past a Colossal Worldwide Box Office Milestone As It Approaches $1 Billion

Moana 2 has now been playing in theaters for well over a month, and after opening to record-breaking numbers over the Thanksgiving holiday, Disney’s animated sequel has continued its dominance and pushed past yet another major global box office milestone. After a solid Wednesday, January 8 that saw Moana 2 earn just over $600,000, the film’s current domestic total now sits at $427 million. Pair this with $532 million from foreign markets, and Moana 2 has safely crossed the $960 million threshold globally, one of only four films to do so last year. Once Moana 2 adds another $10 million to its worldwide total, it will move past Despicable Me 4 to become the third-highest-grossing movie of 2024 globally, trailing only Deadpool & Wolverine and Inside Out 2.
