Its estimated gross of $85 million from Friday to Saturday shatters the previous record (via Box Office Mojo) of $74.1 million set in 2013 by The Hunger Games: Catching Fire.
It’s also on track to make about $128 million over the five-day Thanksgiving holiday, which would also be a record.
(The current best for that period is also The Hunger Games: Catching Fire, with $109 million.
The Hunger Games franchise was an absolute juggernaut.) Frozen II still has a ways to go to match the original film’s massive $1.2 billion worldwide box office total.
