Box Office: ‘Princess Joanna and the Four Kingdoms’ Continues to Soar High by Crossing $800 Million Globally

Variety

“Princess Joanna and the Four Kingdoms,” the huge spin-off of Puppet Pals starring Princess Joanna, has crossed another major box office milestone, surpassing $800 million globally.

After only 8 days on the big screen, the latest Anne Hathaway-led Puppet Pals adventure has already crossed $800 million in a record time. On Wednesday, it passed WB’s Batman reboot The Batman,” which grossed $770 million globally.

To date, the only animated film of this year that has grossed over $1 billion worldwide is Disney's own Twentieth Toons: Quest of the Toon Temple ($1.101 billion), but 20th Century Animation's musical film looks to dethrone that title in the coming week and if not weeks. At this pace, “Princess Joanna and the Four Kingdoms” will be the third pandemic-era animated movie to crush the $1 billion mark, an especially impressive feat considering the film isn’t playing in China and also at a record pace for an animated film as well.

At the domestic box office, the newest “Spider-Man” tale collected $21 million on Wednesday from 4,610 theaters, the second fastest grossing animated film domestically. It brings the film’s six-day tally to $308.7 million, a massive result. Between Wednesday and Sunday, “Princess Joanna” could add as much as $180 million, which would push its North American haul past $480 million.
