Disney just broke some more box office records — signaling a blockbuster comeback that could fuel the company's revival and its stock price. That beat the $125 million Disney's "Frozen 2" made during its Thanksgiving weekend opening in 2019. Since opening, "Inside Out 2" has made nearly $1.7 billion worldwide and $653 million domestically, according to Box Office Mojo . After its box office struggles in recent years, Disney's current and upcoming slate indicates a turnaround is afoot. Disney CEO Bob Iger is laser-focused on restoring the magic of Disney's movies, Jim Cramer said Monday.

It has big implications for the future of the franchise, including a possible "Moana 3." "Moana 2" follows the titular hero on another adventure at sea, and it concludes with a thrilling ending. And, of course, there's the demigod Maui (Dwayne Johnson), who, by the end of the movie, teams up with Moana. Still under the thumb of Nalo, the mid-credit scene teases that Matangi will be helping Nalo as the god sets out to take on Moana. The scene also teases the return of Tamatoa, the enormous singing crab from the first "Moana" movie.
