The Super Mario Galaxy Movie has finally crossed the $1 billion mark and become Universal’s 2nd highest-grosser post-COVID. It is inches away from another animated feature’s global total, but will it be able to surpass it? We are talking about the global total for Zootopia, and by beating it, the Nintendo sequel will climb into the top 15 highest-grossing animated films worldwide. Keep scrolling for the deets.
The 2026 movie has surpassed many of the blockbuster animated features, but with too much competition, it is losing steam at the box office. The Nintendo sequel has also been affected by its digital release. It will not beat the global haul of The Super Mario Bros Movie, as it has been performing weaker than its predecessor.

The Super Mario Galaxy Movie has collected $428.9 million at the North American box office so far and continues to add meaningful collections every day.

Worldwide collection breakdown
- Domestic – $428.9 million
- International – $573.1 million
- Worldwide – $1.002 billion
Edges closer to beating Zootopia at the worldwide box office
According to the numbers, the Nintendo sequel is less than $25 million away from surpassing Zootopia’s global haul. For the unversed, Zootopia was released in 2016 and won the Oscar for Best Animated Feature Film of the Year. It grossed $1.02 billion worldwide. Zootopia needs just 2.3% jump to beat the global haul of Zootopia and become the all-time 14th highest-grossing animation worldwide.
For the record, The Super Mario Galaxy Movie is the all-time 15th-highest-grossing animated film worldwide, and Zootopia is at #14. If the Nintendo sequel beats Zootopia, it will become the 14th-highest-grossing animated feature worldwide. It was released on April 1.
