Pixar’s beloved franchise is back in a big way.
TOY STORY 5 dominated the weekend box office with a massive $160 million opening weekend, easily claiming the No. 1 spot and delivering one of the biggest debuts of the year. Opening in 4,425 theaters, the latest adventure featuring Woody, Buzz, Jessie, and the rest of the gang posted a stellar $36,158 per-theater average and instantly established itself as one of the summer’s biggest theatrical events.
The impressive debut is another major win for Disney and Pixar, proving that audiences still have plenty of affection for one of animation’s most iconic franchises. After questions surrounding whether another sequel was necessary following TOY STORY 4, moviegoers clearly answered with their wallets.
Last weekend’s box office champion, DISCLOSURE DAY, fell to second place with $17 million. The Steven Spielberg-directed sci-fi thriller experienced a 62% decline from its opening weekend but still managed to push its domestic total to a solid $78.3 million after just two weeks in theaters. While the drop is significant, the film remains one of the summer’s most talked-about releases and should continue adding to its total in the weeks ahead.
In third place, OBSESSION continued its remarkable box office run. The thriller earned another $14.2 million, dropping just 25% from last weekend and bringing its domestic total to an impressive $215.8 million. The film has become one of the year’s breakout success stories, demonstrating exceptional staying power and audience interest.
A24’s horror sensation BACKROOMS landed in fourth place with $7.3 million. While down 37% from the previous weekend, the film has now amassed more than $175 million domestically, making it one of the studio’s most successful theatrical releases ever. What began as an intriguing internet-inspired horror concept has become a genuine box office phenomenon.
Rounding out the Top 5 was Paramount’s SCARY MOVIE, which added $6.7 million and pushed its domestic total to $97.6 million. Despite a 53% decline, the horror-comedy sequel is on the verge of crossing the $100 million mark and remains a solid performer for the studio.
Final Thoughts
The story of the weekend is unquestionably TOY STORY 5. Pixar’s latest sequel not only exceeded expectations but also delivered the kind of blockbuster opening that studios dream about. With strong family appeal, nostalgic audiences, and positive word of mouth, the film appears poised for a lengthy and successful run.
Meanwhile, OBSESSION continues to prove that it’s one of the summer’s strongest holdovers, while BACKROOMSremains one of 2026’s biggest surprise hits. As the summer movie season continues, the competition for box office dominance is only getting more interesting.
