Toy Story 5 isn’t taking long to boot Steven Spielberg’s alien thriller Disclosure Day out of the top spot at the domestic box office.
Directed by Spielberg, Disclosure Day defied pre-release projections last weekend and overperformed with a $44.5 million haul from 3,824 North American venues. By Thursday, the film boosted its domestic take to nearly $61.3 million. Combined with the film’s international ticket sales of $49.4 million, Disclosure Day has earned $110.7 million.

Scripted by David Koepp from Spielberg’s original story, Disclosure Day stars Josh O’Connor as Daniel Kellner, a cybersecurity expert who has lifted sensitive files about alien contact with the government. Emily Blunt also stars as Margaret Fairchild, a TV meteorologist who goes viral after speaking an alien dialect live on the air, while Colin Firth plays the head of a non-governmental organization who tries to stop Daniel and Margaret from disclosing the existence of extraterrestrials to the masses.
After the film’s solid start the weekend of June 12-14, Disclosure Day is projected by Deadline to earn $16.5 million in its second weekend frame at the domestic box office, a 63% drop in business from its opening weekend. Should the projection hold, it will boost Disclosure Day’s 10-day domestic tally to $77.7 million.

Toy Story 5, meanwhile, is projected by Deadline to mow down all of its competition with an opening weekend take of anywhere between $160 million and $170 million from 4,425 North American theaters — more than enough to take away Disclosure Day’s box office crown after one week. As such, Disclosure Day is projected to drop to No. 2 domestically.

While a 63% drop is rough for any new film in theaters, Disclosure Day is better equipped to weather the storm than a pair of other new releases since it has a production budget, per Variety, of $115 million and a marketing budget of $80 million.
By contrast, Disclosure Day’s tentpole predecessors this summer — Star Wars: The Mandalorian and Grogu and Masters of the Universe — have much larger production budgets and bigger drops in their second weekend frames at the domestic box office. The Mando movie took a 69% drop at the domestic box office in its second weekend, while Masters of the Universe skidded 71% in its second frame.

Then on Thursday, Obsession crossed the $300 million mark at the global box office, setting yet another record for Focus Features, which acquired the horror thriller at the 2025 Toronto International Film Festival.
