“The Wild Robot,” the latest offering from DreamWorks Animation, is generating significant buzz as it tracks for a robust $382M+ global run. Directed and written by Chris Sanders, and based on the beloved novel by Peter Brown, the film is shaping up to be one of the major animated hits of the year.
Wild Robot Box Office Projections
As of now, “The Wild Robot” is tracking for a $55M+ domestic opening weekend, which would place it ahead of other major releases such as “Transformers One.” Given its release is still over nine weeks away, these projections could change significantly based on marketing efforts, reviews, and audience interest closer to the release date.

Wild Robot’s Potential for Success
“The Wild Robot” is set to comfortably be the biggest September blockbuster of the year. While the current forecast for its lifetime run stands at $382M+, if the film meets DreamWorks’ high standards, it has the potential to exceed these expectations. Historical precedents show how strong word of mouth and critical acclaim can dramatically boost box office returns, as seen with “Inside Out 2,” which defied predictions with a $150M+ opening.
If “The Wild Robot” manages to capture the hearts of audiences and critics alike, a bullish scenario where it posts a massive $70-100M+ opening weekend is not out of the question. However, for now, it remains conservatively tracked for a $55M+ opening weekend.
Comparison with Other DreamWorks Animation Films
To put this in perspective, here are the domestic opening weekend performances of some notable DreamWorks Animation films:
- Shrek 2 (2004): $108M
- Madagascar 3: Europe’s Most Wanted (2012): $60.3M
- Kung Fu Panda (2008): $60.2M
- How to Train Your Dragon (2010): $43.7M
- Trolls (2016): $46.6M
- The Croods (2013): $43.6M
- The Boss Baby (2017): $50.2M
With a projected $55M+ domestic opening weekend, “The Wild Robot” is on track to outperform several beloved DreamWorks titles, positioning itself as a significant success within the studio’s portfolio.
Conclusion
“The Wild Robot” is poised to make a substantial impact at the box office this September. With a $55M+ domestic opening weekend and a $382M+ global run projected, it has the potential to become one of DreamWorks Animation’s standout hits. However, with over nine weeks until its release, the dynamics could shift, potentially propelling the film to even greater heights.
Stay tuned for more updates and in-depth analyses as the release of “The Wild Robot” approaches. Will it soar beyond expectations and become a defining animated film of 2024? Only time will tell, but the signs point to a promising future for this ambitious and heartwarming adventure.
