Pixar’s standout summer hit “Inside Out 2” crossed the $1 billion milestone Sunday, the first film to gross 10 figures globally since “Barbie” last summer and the fastest an animated film has ever crossed the threshold.
"Inside Out 2."
"Inside Out 2" reportedly grossed another $57.4 million domestically over the weekend to bring its total gross to $1.014 billion worldwide as of Sunday, making it the 11th animated film to ever hit the mark and the fastest to do so, in just 19 days.
The film has dominated the box office since it released three weeks ago, notching the best opening weekend of the year by far with a $155 million domestic gross and shattering second weekend records by grossing another $100 million in the U.S., the best-ever second weekend performance for an animated film.
No other movie has hit the $1 billion mark this year and only two did it last year—"Barbie" hit the milestone in 17 days and went on to have a lifetime gross of $1.4 billion and "The Super Mario Bros. Movie" had $1.36 billion in total box office sales, hitting the 10-figure mark in 26 days.

The weekend box office was also kind to "A Quiet Place: Day One," which grossed $53 million to top the opening weekends of its two franchise predecessors, and Kevin Costner's ill-fated "Horizon: An American Saga — Chapter One" came in third with an estimated opening of $11 million.
