We\u2019ve seen Woody\u2019s origins tale in\u00a0Toy Story 2,<\/em>\u00a0Buzz Lightyear\u2019s in spinoff\u00a0Lightyear\u00a0<\/em>and all the toys nearly getting incinerated in\u00a0Toy Story 3,\u00a0<\/em>but the fifth time around, it\u2019s Jessie\u2019s story.<\/p>\n

In an already-vibrant summer marketplace that\u2019s at nearly $1.6 billion in North America \u2014 the best since 2019, per Rentrak \u2014 Disney Pixar\u2019s\u00a0Toy Story 5<\/a><\/strong>\u00a0<\/em>will keep this bull box office season going with what\u2019s expected to be the biggest domestic start of 2026 and franchise-best of\u00a0$140M<\/strong>\u00a0at 4,425 theaters. Of course,\u00a0Toy Story 5\u00a0<\/em>will have the action figure kung-fu grip of all PLFs and Imax. Worldwide, though, the Andrew Stanton-directed fifthquel is expected to be a record opening for the franchise but the second-best 2026 bow globally with\u00a0$275M<\/strong>,\u00a0$135M<\/strong>\u00a0of that coming from an 87% footprint abroad including China. Japan is going later on July 3 and Germany is going late on July 23 after\u00a0<\/em>Illumination\/Universal\u2019s\u00a0Minions & Monsters\u00a0<\/em>(where that slapstick animated comedy rallies). Germans prefer their Minions over heartwarming toys.<\/p>\n

Year-to-date, the best global and domestic opening by a MPA title belongs to Illumination\/Nintendo\/Universal\u2019s\u00a0The Super Mario Galaxy Movie,\u00a0<\/em>which respectively minted $372.5M WW and a 3-day domestic of $131.7M ( $190.8M 5-day). China\u2019s\u00a0Pegasus 3\u00a0<\/em>with a Tuesday-Sunday take of $393M, is essentially the year\u2019s best global opening.<\/p>\n

At the domestic B.O.,\u00a0Incredibles 2\u00a0<\/em>still holds the record for the best Pixar opening at $182.6M, however, in like-for-likes worldwide that record belongs to 2024\u2019s\u00a0Inside Out 2\u00a0<\/em>at $384M WW ($230M int\u2019l, $154M domestic). The previous record opening for a\u00a0Toy Story\u00a0<\/em>film was 2019\u2019s\u00a0Toy Story 4<\/em>\u00a0both domestic ($120.9M) and worldwide ($249M in like-for-likes). Looking back, that was a great opening, but at the time it came in under projections, which\u00a0were wild at $160M stateside and $260M WW<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Why the slightly lower domestic forecast for\u00a0Toy Story 5<\/em>\u00a0from $150M\u00a0<\/a>to $140M? That\u2019s because presales at $25M are slightly ahead of\u00a0Super Mario Galaxy\u00a0<\/em>at the same point in time, ahead of\u00a0Zootopia 2\u00a0<\/em>($100.2M 3-day, $158.8M 5-day) but behind\u00a0Moana 2\u00a0<\/em>($139.7M 3-day, $225.4M 5-day). A lot of presales are on the Juneteenth holiday this Friday, which is the swing factor: It\u2019s bound to be a bigger day than usual at the B.O., so the question is what the hold is on Saturday.<\/p>\n

First choice for the fifth film in the 31-year-old is best with women under 25 but strong across the board. It\u2019s traditional (except with\u00a0Toy Story 4<\/em>) for Pixar to have a theatrical release over Father\u2019s Day weekend. In the case of\u00a0Toy Story 5,\u00a0<\/em>which skews more female, it will hold in its Saturday-to-Sunday ease, though not as big as a young boys-skewing movie such as\u00a0Incredible 2<\/em>\u00a0(-11%). The female-skewing\u00a0Inside Out 2\u00a0<\/em>eased by 23% between its Saturday and Father\u2019s Day Sunday.<\/p>\n

Critical reviews on Rotten Tomatoes so far are very good for\u00a0Toy Story 5\u00a0<\/em>at 93% certified fresh, though lowest in the franchise following\u00a0T<\/i>oy Story\u00a0<\/em>and\u00a0Toy Story 2\u00a0<\/em>(both 100%),\u00a0Toy Story 3\u00a0<\/em>(98%) and\u00a0Toy Story 4\u00a0<\/em>(97%). All the previous\u00a0Toy\u00a0<\/em>Story<\/i>\u00a0pics received A Cinemascores with the exception of\u00a0Toy Story 2<\/em>, which was an A+. Stanton is part of the Pixar posse, having directed\u00a0WALL-E, Finding Nemo\u00a0<\/em>and\u00a0Finding Dory<\/em>\u00a0and co-directed\u00a0A Bug\u2019s Life,\u00a0<\/em>but this is his first\u00a0Toy Story.<\/em><\/p>\n

Previews start at 2 p.m. Thursday in U.S. and Canada.<\/p>\n

Overseas, the riches for\u00a0Toy Story 5\u00a0<\/em>are expected to be in English-speaking territories, Latin America and France. Not so much Asia. China posted a $13M opening for\u00a0Toy Story 4<\/em>, while\u00a0Toy Story 3\u00a0<\/em>bowed to $14M in the Middle Kingdom. In like-for-likes,\u00a0Toy Story 3\u00a0<\/em>posted an international opening of $98M, while\u00a0Toy Story 4\u00a0<\/em>was $128M.<\/p>\n

Elsewhere on North American marquees, there\u2019s art house counterprogramming with A24\u2019s Michael Sarnoski-directed\u00a0The Death of Robin Hood<\/strong><\/em>, starring Hugh Jackman and Jodie Comer, which is booked at 1,760 theaters with an eye in the\u00a0single-digit millions<\/strong>. Critics are at 78% fresh for the older-guy-skewing period drama, which follows the dude who steals from the rich and gives to the poor. In this version, Robin is severely injured and in the hands of a mysterious woman who is offering a chance at salvation. A24 took domestic on this $20M production for around $4M. Sarnoski shot in 35MM in Ireland, which has excellent film tax credits around 30%-40%.<\/p>\n

Neon has its $10M+ Sundance global acquisition\u00a0Leviticus<\/a><\/strong>,\u00a0<\/em>opening in the\u00a0low single digits<\/strong>\u00a0at 1,075 theaters. Reviews for writer-director Adrian Chiarella\u2019s genre feature are at 94% certified fresh. Starring Joe Bird, Stacy Clausen and Mia Wasikowska, it follows two teenage boys must escape a violent entity that takes the form of the person they desire most \u2014 each other. The comp here is IFC\u2019s horror pic\u00a0Late Night<\/em>\u00a0With the Devil<\/em>\u00a0which opened to $2.8M back in late March 2024.<\/p>\n
