‘The Odyssey’ Holds Strong Worldwide, Cume Near $640M; ‘Toy Story 5’ Third Pic YTD To Cross $1B WW – Global Box Office Update - Deadline

What the report says

Deadline reported that Christopher Nolan’s Universal release “The Odyssey” remained a dominant global box-office draw in its second weekend, bringing in $215.3 million worldwide and lifting its total to nearly $640 million. The outlet said that represented an 18% decline from its $263.7 million worldwide opening, a strong hold for a major tentpole. Imax continued to be central to the film’s performance, with Deadline reporting $48 million from Imax screens over the second weekend and about $140 million to date.

Internationally, Deadline said “The Odyssey” earned $128.3 million in its second overseas frame, down 10%, with notable holds across the U.K./Ireland, France, Italy, Australia, Germany, Mexico, Spain, Brazil, India, the Netherlands and Saudi Arabia. The article also highlighted a strong start in CIS markets, led by Kazakhstan, and said 70mm Imax showtimes remained heavily booked into September.

The same update said Disney/Pixar’s “Toy Story 5” crossed $1 billion worldwide, reaching $1.022 billion and becoming the year’s highest-grossing film so far. Deadline listed its totals as $573.5 million overseas and $448.6 million domestic, making it the third 2026 release to pass the billion-dollar mark and Disney’s first this year. The film’s top overseas markets included Mexico, the U.K., Japan and China.

Deadline framed the results as part of a strong global box-office year, also noting Universal’s “Michael” and “Super Mario Galaxy Movie” had passed $1 billion. The update matters because it signals robust audience demand for both premium-format adult-driven spectacle and established family franchises.
