How much did Ne Zha 2 earn at the worldwide box office?
Ne Zha 2 is a 2025 Chinese animated fantasy-adventure film written and directed by Jiaozi, based on the titular mythic figure of Chinese legend and Xu Zhonglin’s 16th-century novel Investiture of the Gods, and the direct sequel to Ne Zha. It became the fastest film to cross $1 billion, doing so in just 11 days. It is also the only animated movie to cross the $2 billion worldwide milestone, and that sum came from a single market.
According to media reports, including Box Office Mojo, Ne Zha 2 collected $2.26 billion worldwide. It is the all-time fifth-highest-grossing film worldwide. Ne Zha 2 is also the highest-selling animated film by ticket sales, overtaking 2019’s The Lion King.
How much will Toy Story 5 have to earn to beat the worldwide haul of Toy Story 5?
Toy Story 5 has a huge target to aim for: surpassing the worldwide haul of Ne Zha 2. Toy Story 5 must gross $2.27 billion worldwide. The movie will have to meet near-perfect conditions to beat the world’s biggest animation ever. Although the Toy Story films experienced an upward trend with each film, Toy Story 4 collected $1.07 billion worldwide. It will need a massive 111.2% worldwide jump to beat Ne Zha 2’s global haul.
What is Toy Story 5 about?
