The writing has been on the wall from this moment on Super Mario Bros movie First theaters, but after weeks of sitting comfortably at the top of the domestic box office, Universal, Illumination, and Nintendo’s movie collaboration has officially hit $1 billion.
It’s been less than a full month since co-directors Aaron Horvath and Michael Jelinek Super Mario Bros movie It premiered, but in those short few weeks, the project has already grossed $490 million domestically and $532 million internationally, making it the fifth pandemic-era film to cross the billion-dollar mark. Given how the movie has just opened in markets including South Korea and Japan over the past few days, it’s sure to gross a bit more before its theatrical run ends.
