According to those boxofficemojo numbers, the real life movie version--which was amazing to see (saw it the 2nd weekend it came out)--has these numbers (as of today):
Worldwide $978 million dollars with $412 million domestic in the US and $565 million in all other markets (foreign).
Not bad work if you can get it.
The 2nd top movie of the year so far behind
Here's a great video below from behind the scenes with everyone talking about being in the film, why they wanted to tell the story that they did--a lot of great APIA voices here.
Maia and Sydney seem like they could be real sisters!
So cute.
More movies!
But even if there is not a live sequel soon--what's even better is that the in 10/15 years the young kids that watched this will remember these Asian faces, and want to see them again in something new.
