Mario Galaxy Movie Targets Massive Box-Office Kickoff
The Super Mario Galaxy Movie is projected for a five-day domestic debut around $175–180 million and a global total around $350–375 million, helped by a Wednesday launch in about 4,000 North American theaters. Produced for roughly $110 million, it follows 2023’s Mario film which opened to $204 million domestic and $375 million worldwide, and—with broad, family-friendly appeal and a star-studded cast led by Chris Pratt as Mario—aims to be the year’s biggest debut while competing with other releases like The Drama and Project Hail Mary.
