In addition to being the highest-grossing video game adaptation of all time, the movie has surpassed the records set by Warcraft and Pokémon: Detective Pikachu, with earnings of $508.7 million in worldwide ticket sales through Thursday.

As per The Hollywood Reporter, the domestic gross of Super Mario through Thursday stands at $260.3 million, making it the top-performing movie of the year to date. Meanwhile, its earnings overseas total $248.4 million.
