📊 2026 Box Office Chart: Every Wide Release Ranked

Ten wide releases, $1,236,472,191 combined domestic gross through July 10. One movie already owns a third of it. This is the total-gross leaderboard, not the weekend chart, and the two rankings measure genuinely different things about the same year. If you only check the weekend numbers, this is the one you're missing.

The 2026 domestic leaderboard: data as of July 10, 2026

Number that matters: $404,280,481. Toy Story 5's total alone beats Disclosure Day, Minions & Monsters, Supergirl, Young Washington, Moana and Evil Dead Burn combined — $376,994,938 for all six versus $404.28M for one Pixar sequel. (The studio would love if you stopped reading right there.)

My call for the next update: Young Washington and Moana swap places. Moana's $43,142,824 already beats Young Washington's $33,560,379 by $9,582,445, but the rank column above hasn't caught up yet. Rank lag, not a data error. Check the grade on this one next time the chart moves.

Why does Backrooms rank #3 here but #10 on this week's chart?

Both numbers are correct. They're measuring different races.

A movie that opens huge and fades fast can win any single weekend against a movie quietly adding a few million every Friday for months — but only the second movie is still building a real total by the time anyone's counting the whole year. Backrooms is the second kind. Ten-plus weeks in wide release got it to $194,232,945 domestic, a gap of $59,138,820 behind #2 Obsession, while this week's chart has it sitting outside the current top nine entirely.

Worldwide, Backrooms sits at $301M-plus. That means international has already added at least $106,767,055 on top of the domestic figure, and probably more, since "$301M+" is a floor, not a final tally. Domestic accounts for at most about 65% of the worldwide number; I'd bet the real split skews further international before this one's run ends. For how the two totals get counted differently in the first place, see domestic vs. worldwide box office, explained.

That worldwide figure is also a company record. Backrooms is A24's highest-grossing release ever, the studio's first film to clear $200M worldwide, adapted by director Kane Parsons from his own viral YouTube horror series. No franchise number in the title. No theme-park deal backing the marketing spend. Just weeks of holds nobody predicted going in.

Obsession's "long-tail hold" tag at #2 belongs in the same conversation. $253,371,765 domestic with no single-weekend explosion behind it, just steady adds that kept it ahead of Backrooms while louder movies opened and closed around both of them. That's the same shape as Backrooms, a bigger number riding a wider release pattern. Toy Story 5 is the opposite bet entirely: a top-3 performer on this week's chart and the outright domestic leader here, meaning it opened enormous and simply kept collecting rather than clawing its way up over months. Neither shape is the better bet for a studio. They're just different bets, and reading total gross next to weekend rank is the only way to tell which one a movie made.

How concentrated is 2026's box office right now?

Very.

Toy Story 5, Obsession and Backrooms, the top three and nothing else, account for 68.9% of the entire top 10's domestic gross. The other seven movies on this chart are splitting the remaining 31.1% seven ways.

Break it down by IP instead of rank and the story barely changes. Toy Story 5, Minions & Monsters and Moana combine for $556,346,670 domestic, just under 45% of the whole top 10, and all three are sequels or established franchise entries. That's the formula studios have leaned on since Frozen turned into a business plan: put a recognizable name on the poster and the downside shrinks. It's table stakes now, not a strategy anyone gets credit for. For the studio-level version of this math, see our market share tracker.

Everything in the middle of this chart (Disclosure Day, Minions & Monsters, Supergirl) is what a normal box office year actually looks like: nine figures, no fireworks, and a Status column that just says "still charting." Nobody writes headlines about $111,465,415. They should. That's a real hit sitting quietly at #4 because two bigger movies happen to be having a good year at the same time. It's why we keep a full A24 history page instead of letting Backrooms get flattened into a single chart line.

What moves next

Toy Story 5 is the one to watch for the next round-number milestone; see our full writeup on its $400M crossing for how it got there and what's left on the table. Moana just opened at #8 with $43,142,824 and, per the call above, should out-rank Young Washington by the next update — worth a look at what critics made of it if the number alone doesn't sell you. Evil Dead Burn and The Invite are both fresh enough that their current totals, $13,701,012 and $7,592,062, tell you almost nothing about where they land in a month. Check back after a real weekend or two. One opening frame tells you nothing.

Methodology

Totals are domestic (US/Canada) box office as reported through industry-standard tracking, current as of the most recently completed weekend (July 10, 2026 for this version). Worldwide totals are noted separately where they materially change the picture (Backrooms is the case here) rather than blended into one number, since domestic and international reporting run on different cycles. Share-of-top-10 and gap figures on this page are calculated directly from the totals above, not pulled from a separate source.
