Crosses $200 Million in North America
11 Jan 2025 By Tommy Pihl (Editor-in-Chief)
We get never tired of records, and we have a new one. Jim Carrey's new movie "Sonic the Hedgehog 3" has just passed $200 million at the domestic box office. This makes the movie the second most successful video game adaptation ever made, only behind "The Super Mario Bros." Movie. Earlier this week it surpassed its predecessors Sonic the Hedgehog and Sonic the Hedgehog 2.
Not many video game adaptations have passed the $100 million mark, so to have exceeded $200 million is quite an accomplishment. In fact, only 10 video game adaptations have earned $100 million domestically.
These games include: The Super Mario Bros. Movie ($574.9 million), Sonic the Hedgehog 3 ($202.1 million and still counting), Sonic the Hedgehog 2 ($190.8 million), Uncharted ($148.6 million), Sonic the Hedgehog ($146 million), Pokémon: Detective Pikachu ($144.1 million), Five Nights at Freddy’s ($137.3 million), Lara Croft: Tomb Raider ($131.1 million), The Angry Birds Movie ($107.5 million), and Rampage ($101 million).
