By Alimat Aliyeva
The cartoon "Puzzle-2" (Inside Out 2) by Pixar studios, owned by
the American Walt Disney Co., became the first film of 2024 with
box office receipts of more than $ 1 billion,
Azernews reports.
The picture collected about $ 1.01 billion, including $ 469.3
million (including $ 57.4 million over the weekend) in North
America and $ 545.5 million in other regions.
The sequel to "Puzzles" broke the $1 billion mark in 19 days - a
record for animated films. Before that, only ten animated films,
including eight Disney and Pixar films, recorded such a box office.
It should be noted that "Puzzle-2" was released on June 14. Pete
Docter's cartoon "Puzzle" was released in 2015. In 2016, he won the
Academy Award for "Best Full-length Cartoon". The sequel was
created by Kelsey Mann.
The last time the $1 billion mark was reached was in 2023 for
the movie "Barbie", which also took 19 days.
"Puzzle 2" also claims to be Pixar's highest-grossing film,
which so far is "The Incredibles 2" with collections of $ 1.2
billion.
