“The Incredibles 2” is poised to become the biggest animated film ever, after a third strong weekend at the domestic box office.
The Disney/Pixar sequel grossed $45.5 million over the weekend, according to studio estimates Sunday — dipping only 43 percent and finishing second to the sophomore weekend for Universal’s “Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom” ($60 million).
In total, Brad Bird’s second “Incredibles” film has grossed $440 million domestically and $647 million worldwide, according to Box Office Mojo.
That makes “Incredibles 2” — which again stars the voices of Holly Hunter and Craig T. Nelson as the superhero parents — the second highest-grossing Pixar film ever in North America and the third biggest animated film ever, before adjusting for inflation.
