BOX OFFICE: BIG HERO 6 Becomes Third Highest Grossing Disney Animation Movie Ever
Big Hero 6 won an Oscar last month, and it now has yet another feather to add to its cap thanks to an impressive worldwide haul which has seen it become the third highest grossing Disney Animation release of all-time. How much has the loveable Baymax earned so far? Find out here...
Deadline reports that following a strong performance in China - a territory which is becoming more and more important to a movie's box office performance - Big Hero 6 has now crossed the $600 million mark worldwide with a current cume of $604.8 million (that's made up of $221.3 million domestically and $383.5 million internationally). That means it now sits behind Frozen and The Lion King as the third highest grossing Disney Animation release of all-time, and between this and its big awards season wins, you have to wonder how much longer it will be before a sequel is officially announced. The question is, will this level of success mean more Marvel properties get the animated treatment, and could the world of Big Hero 6 become part of the Marvel Cinematic Universe? It would certainly be interesting to see a live-action Baymax in Avengers: Infinity War...
