Pixar’s latest is now on track to surpass 2019’s “photorealistic” version of The Lion King and really, truly become the highest-grossing animated film of all time.

    Perhaps you mean Inside Out 2 is now the highest grossing animated film of all time? The first animated film to make $1 billion was Toy Story 3 in 2010.

    EDIT: Ah, I see. It earned $1 billion overseas, making it the first animated film to do so.

      The headline is so misleading and clearly wrong (Pixar alone have 4 earlier $1 billion films) that it must be intentional rage bait.
