Moana 2 Sets Thanksgiving Box Office Record

Moana 2 has set a box office record for the biggest take ever on Thanksgiving weekend.

The sequel pulled in $221 million in ticket sales at North American theaters over the five-day Thanksgiving holiday.

The previous record was set by Frozen 2 in 2019 when that movie made $125 million during the Turkey Day time period.

Last week’s number one film, Wicked, also kept putting butts in the seats. This week, Wicked earned another $117.5 million in the extended holiday.

Gladiator 2 brought in another $44 million in its second weekend of release.
