The 50-year-old actor took to Instagram to thank his worldwide fans for making the remake of the 1992 animated classic his personal best. 

Aladdin, which has grossed more than $875 million worldwide, overtook the no. 1 spot from previous title holder, 1996’s Independence Day, to become Smith’s highest-grossing movie of his career.

“This is a post that I’m just humbled and honored to make right now….To be in this game as long as I’ve been in this game and to have my biggest movie at this point of my career, I just want to say thank you,” shared the actor, before proceeding to offer his thanks in more than dozen different languages. “Just thank you, everybody, around the world, thank you, thank you. Who I miss?”

You can see Smith next in Gemini Man, set to debut in October, and in the highly anticipated Bad Boys for Life, out in January.

With its hauls from 4,476 North American theaters at an impressive $7 million on Thursday and $31 million and Friday, the live-action remake of the Disney classic is projected to bring in an estimated $109 million over its four-day Memorial Day opening weekend.

According to Variety, Aladdin will be the sixth-highest Memorial Day weekend debut ever, behind 2014’s X-Men: Days of Future Past, which hauled $110.5 million.

“Fans are absolutely loving the materials they’re seeing for Aladdin, from Will Smith’s performance to the authentic look and feel of the movie, to the soundtrack and its many songs. Like other Disney movies of recent note, there is that element of older ticket buyers sharing their excitement, to be able to share one of their childhood memories on the big screen with their kids and this younger generation.”

The Guy Ritchie-helmed feature stars Mena Massoud as the titular character opposite Naomi Scott as Jasmine and Will Smith as the Genie. Marwan Kenzari, Navid Negahban, Nasim Pedrad, and Billy Magnussen also star.
