The Little Mermaid was a slow burn at the box office and its comparison to Disney’s other live-action remakes proves it just was not as successful.
The Little Mermaid is Disney’s latest remake but it took a lot longer to reach $500 million at the box office compared to its predecessors. Disney has been remaking all of their classic animated movies since 1994 with The Jungle Book, although this has since been remade again in 2016. 2010’s Alice in Wonderland could be considered the start of the recent outpouring of live-action remakes from Disney, as 17 remakes have been made since then.
How Long Other Disney Remakes Took To Make $500m Compared To The Little Mermaid The Little Mermaid's box office has taken just over a month to reach $500 million worldwide, which does not seem horrendous but is not nearly Disney’s best performance. Beauty and the Beast takes that spot as it hit half a billion on its second weekend, only its 8th day of release.
