Mufasa Joins Three 2024 Disney Movies With Global Box Office Milestone
Mufasa: The Lion King has hit a major box office milestone, joining three other 2024 Disney movies. The photorealistic CG-animated prequel follows the origin story of Simba's father Mufasa, and his dynamic with his jealous adoptive brother Taka, later known as Scar. The Mufasa: The Lion King release kicked off the weekend before Christmas with a lukewarm debut that saw it hit No. 2 on the domestic chart behind Sonic the Hedgehog 3. However, it has had slow and steady growth that allowed it to eventually hit No. 1 during its third weekend.
Per Deadline, as of the Saturday morning of its fourth weekend in theaters, Mufasa: The Lion King has officially crossed the $500 million milestone worldwide. This makes it the fourth Disney release of 2024 to hit that mark, after Moana 2, Deadpool & Wolverine, and Inside Out 2. Mufasa is currently the ninth highest-grossing movie of 2024 worldwide, leaving Sonic the Hedgehog in the dust at No.
