Disney and Pixar’s Toy Story 5 continues to dominate the box office, but Warner Bros. and DC’s Supergirl has made an impressive start with an $18 million opening day haul. After delivering the biggest domestic debut of 2026 with a $160 million opening weekend, Toy Story 5 remained in first place on Friday, earning another $21 million from 4,425 North American theatres. The animated sequel is projected to collect between $70 million and $80 million in its second weekend, pushing its domestic total close to the $300 million mark. Globally, the film has already crossed $312 million, making it the strongest launch in the franchise’s history.
Meanwhile, Supergirl landed in second place after flying to an $18 million opening day across 3,602 theatres. The DC superhero adventure is expected to finish the weekend with around $50 million domestically.
Directed by Craig Gillespie from a screenplay by Ana Nogueira, Supergirl stars Milly Alcock as the young Kryptonian hero embarking on an intergalactic mission alongside a mysterious alien companion. The cast also features Jason Momoa, Eve Ridley, Matthias Schoenaerts, Diarmaid Murtagh, Ferdinand Kingsley and David Corenswet.
Although the film’s projected opening is significantly lower than last year’s Superman, which debuted to $125 million before ending its theatrical run with $618 million worldwide, Supergirl carries a smaller reported production budget of $170 million compared to Superman’s $225 million. Its long-term performance will now depend on audience word of mouth and its ability to maintain momentum over the coming weeks.
Elsewhere at the box office, Jackass: Best and Last debuted with $3.8 million on Friday and is tracking toward an $8.5 million opening weekend. While that marks the franchise’s smallest opening, the comedy reportedly cost just $10 million to produce, putting it on course to turn a profit relatively quickly.
The horror sensation Obsession continued its remarkable theatrical run, adding another $2.9 million on Friday. Made for under $1 million, the film is expected to reach approximately $233 million domestically by the end of its seventh weekend, cementing its status as one of the year’s biggest box-office success stories.
Steven Spielberg’s Disclosure Day rounded out the top five with $2.3 million on Friday and is projected to earn $7.8 million over the weekend, bringing its North American total to roughly $94 million after three weekends in cinemas.
With Toy Story 5 showing exceptional staying power and Supergirl making a respectable debut, the summer box office remains highly competitive as several major releases continue battling for audiences.
