Minions & Monsters at the worldwide box office

Based on the latest numbers, Minions 3 has hit the $222.3 million overseas cume and, adding that to its $145.8 million domestic cume, the worldwide collection hits $368.1 million.

Can it beat Despicable Me 4 at the worldwide box office?
Despicable Me 4 was the last release in this animated franchise. It was released in 2024, and despite the mixed reactions, the film was a huge box office success. According to Box Office Mojo, the movie collected $972 million worldwide during its run. Minions & Monsters is still around $604 million away from overtaking the global haul of Despicable Me 4.
Although Minions 3 is a box office success, it will not be on the same level as the previous movies. It has been consistently recording the lowest numbers in the franchise, and with such a poor run, it will not be able to bridge this $604 million gap worldwide and thus will not beat Despicable Me 4.
