According to Luiz Fernando’s report, Mufasa: The Lion King has officially beaten Wonka’s $218.4 million entire run at the US box office as it collected $8.7 million on its 6th weekend.

Mufasa is expected to earn between $250 million and $260 million in the US.

The movie has crossed the $600 million mark at the global box office as it remains viral and crossed the $400 million mark overseas. The animated feature collected a strong $15.4 million on the 6th weekend overseas, dropping -24.3% from last weekend for a $405.6 million international cume over all 53 markets.

Adding the overseas cume to its $221.1 million cume in the United States, Mufasa: The Lion King reached a $626.7 million worldwide cume with an estimated production budget of $200 million. It has raked in 213.35% more than the price tag. The animated feature is eyeing a $700 million to $750 million global run.
