As the industry braces for the impact of Deadpool & Wolverine this week, a couple of the summer’s biggest blockbusters are entering the twilight of their theatrical runs. While Inside Out 2 will exit theaters having become the highest-grossing animated film in history, Despicable Me 4 hopes to continue providing counter-programming to families across the next couple of weeks, as it chases the significantly high standard of its predecessors in the Despicable Me franchise. The movie recently passed a massive new global box office milestone, having overtaken the lifetime haul of the series’ first film. With $273 million in the bank domestically and another $329 million from overseas markets, Despicable Me 4 has now grossed $602 million worldwide. This puts it at the fifth spot in the franchise’s internal rankings, ahead of the first Despicable Me’s nearly $550 million lifetime global haul, but still far behind the number four film, Minions: The Rise of Gru’s $939 million haul. The Despicable Me franchise has been highly successful, with over $5 billion in cumulative global grosses — it’s the first animated series to pass this milestone. What this also means is that its per-movie global average stands at an admirably huge $875 million currently. Two of the series’ six films — Minions and Despicable Me 3 — have passed the $1 billion milestone worldwide, while two others have made more than $900 million globally. Despicable Me 4 came in the wake of Inside Out 2’s record-breaking box office debut, but didn't get immediately flattened. In fact, the movie performed impressively in its first weekend, although it appeared to taper off in the subsequent days. While a $600 million-plus global haul is nothing to scoff at, Inside Out 2 has made over twice that amount worldwide, and is now set to pass the $1.5 billion milestone.
