What was the U.S. opening-weekend box office of Disney’s 1998 animated film Mulan?

The story behind the answer

Disney’s 1998 animated film Mulan earned about $22.8 million at the U.S. and Canadian box office during its opening weekend.

The figure is commonly reported as approximately $22.8 million, with detailed box-office listings giving a more exact total of about $22.76 million. The opening weekend measured the film’s initial theatrical performance, not its worldwide gross or total domestic earnings.

Box-office numbers are often confused because sources may use different territories, currencies, or definitions of a weekend. Mulan’s opening figure belongs to the North American market and its first weekend of regular theatrical release.

The result placed Mulan among the major animated releases of Disney’s late-1990s period. Its performance should not be mixed with the financial results of the 2020 live-action film, which had a very different release model and was affected by the COVID-19 pandemic.
