Illumination and Universal’s The Super Mario Galaxy Movie is enjoying a stellar second weekend, soaring past the $300 million mark domestically and $600 million worldwide.

The sequel is the first Hollywood pic of the year to accomplish either milestone. It’s expected to top the weekend chart with nearly $70 million in domestic ticket sales for an estimated North American tally of $308.1 million through Sunday. Overseas, it is on course to earn another $90 million from 81 markets for a foreign tally of $327 million.

Amazon MGM Studios’ Project Hail Mary, now in its fourth outing, also remains a force of nature. The Ryan Gosling-led space adventure looks to earn another $28 million this weekend for a domestic cume in the $258 million range through Sunday.
