In the end, the movie was the highest-grossing film for Disney in 2023 at $845.6M worldwide, and the only title from the studio to crack the top 10 in Deadline’s Most Valuable Blockbuster Tournament this year. 3(in Screen Engine/Comscore exits, 58% of moviegoers during opening weekend said the main reason they saw the threequel was because it was part of a franchise they cherish), the Disney marketing machine, here with a global P&A of $160M, made this movie a summer destination. 3 was boosted by the power of its cast (including Vin Diesel, Chris Pratt, Zoe Saldaña, Dave Bautista and Karen Gillan) that counted 350M followers, which took the entire social media universe for the movie to 704M — higher than the online reach of Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker(669M).
