Comcast subsidiary Illumination saw its adaptation of a popular Nintendo (NTDOF) franchise hit a major achievement over the weekend. _The Super Mario Galaxy Movie_ surpassed $1 billion at the box office, making it the first film of 2026 to do so. ### Introducing TipRanks MCP for Agents - Deliver institutional-grade market data directly into Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, and other MCP-compatible AI tools. - Designed for personal research, portfolio monitoring, and AI-assisted investment workflows. _The Super Mario Galaxy Movie_ didn't achieve this success overnight. Instead, the film spent several weeks building up to the over $1 billion in box office sales. This saw it finally reach the milestone after its 10th week in theaters. This is despite the early release of the digital version of the film on May 19, 2026, which likely cannibalized some of its ticket sales. It's worth noting that _The Super Mario Galaxy Movie_ is still behind _The Super Mario Bros. Movie_ in box office performance. The first film in the series pulled in $1.361 billion during its theatrical run. For comparison, _The Super Mario Galaxy Movie_ only just eked past $1 billion with its box office performance of $1,000,028,930. _The Super Mario Galaxy Movie_ is also likely near the end of its theatrical run, which will limit its ability to close the gap between it and _The Super Mario Bros. Movie_. ## **Comcast Stock Movement Today** Comcast stock was down slightly on Monday, extending a 13.12% year-to-date drop. The shares have also fallen 31.16% over the past 12 months.
