The animated film, which debuted on April 5, has been setting box-office records since its debut weekend, and continues to dominate in its fourth weekend of release.
When that milestone is reached, “The Super Mario Bros. Movie” will have become one of just 10 animated films to hit $1 billion, and the first film of 2023 to do so.
Meanwhile, “Super Mario” easily takes the crown as the most successful movie to be based on a video game, more than doubling the box office takes of “Warcraft” and “Pokémon: Detective Pikachu”, which raked in $439 million and $449 million, respectively.
