GOAT Box Office Performance So Far
At the North American box office, GOAT opened in second place with a solid $7.1 million on its first day from 3,863 theaters (as per Box Office Mojo), including $1 million from Thursday previews. It is placed just behind the weekend’s No. 1 release, Wuthering Heights ($11 million), but was comfortably ahead of Crime 101 ($3.9 million)
While the international box office figures for GOAT are still awaited, domestically, the film is tracking to earn around $20-23 million over its 3-day opening weekend. Even at this early stage, the animated title has already secured a spot among the top 25 highest-grossing films of 2026 so far, as per Box Office Mojo’s annual worldwide chart.
