“Onward” Wins At The Box Office But Has A Subpar Opening

“Onward” came in first place at the box office bringing in $40 million. Overseas, the film brought in an additional $28 million, bringing its worldwide box office total to $68 million.

Although “Onward” finished #1 at the box office, the movie also opened with one of the lowest openings ever for a Pixar animated film. The only other Pixar films to have lower opening weekends were “The Good Dinosaur” with $39 million and “A Bug’s Life” with $33 million. However, adjusted for inflation, “Onward” had the less impressive opening of the three movies.

“The Call Of The Wild” finished in fifth place with $7 million. So far, “The Call Of The Wild” has made $56 million domestically and $43 million internationally, bringing its worldwide box office take to $99 million. Things are not looking good for “The Call Of The Wild” at the box office and Disney is expected to lose around $50 million in the end.
