Incredibles 2 becomes Disney's third title to reach $1 billion worldwide this year
It's been an incredible year so far for Disney — thanks in part to Incredibles 2.

It only took the Incredibles sequel a month and a half to reach this milestone, making it the seventh animated film to do so. The film now joins a league of Disney favorites, including Frozen ($1.23 billion), Minions ($1.16 billion), Toy Story 3 ($1.07 billion), Despicable Me 3 ($1.03 billion), Finding Dory ($1.03 billion), and Zootopia ($1.02 billion), in crossing the triple-comma mark.
