LOS ANGELES (Reuters) -Animated Pixar movie “Inside Out 2” made an estimated $155 million in U.S. and Canadian ticket sales over the weekend, according to estimates released on Sunday.
The Friday through Sunday tally tops the $82.5 million brought in by “Dune: Part Two” in March.
In international markets, “Inside Out 2” brought in a global total of $295 million through Sunday, research firm Comscore said.
The results provided a boost for theater owners, who have fewer movies to show this year because of delays caused by strikes in Hollywood last year.
