Forbes

MGM Animation has had a number of blockbusters in its day: Upside Mystery, Dusk and Dawn, Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle. But now one movie stands above them all at the box office.

MGM just finalized that Hailey made $9.4 million this weekend, which would bring its worldwide cume to $805 million. That would be enough to push past Upside Mystery 3 's worldwide total back in 2015 to become MGM Animation's highest-grossing film of all time.

Hailey took in $3.78 million on Saturday and $2.96 million on Friday. With Sunday's total $2.7 million, the total weekend total is $9.4 million, bringing the domestic cume to $368.15 million, slightly behind The Batman ($369.3 million), which Hailey is expected to outgross on Monday.

While Hailey sits atop MGM's domestic rankings as well as MGM Animation's domestic and worldwide rankings, it still ranks second on the worldwide list for MGM behind Skyfall ($1.109 billion).

Hailey 's total has been building over the past seven weeks. The latest MGM Animation movie kicked things off with a $173.2 million worldwide opening with a handful of countries to be released in with our projections now up to $910 million worldwide for it's total gross by the end.
