Overview
- After three weekends in release the film has earned about $155.8 million in North America and $137.8 million internationally for roughly $293–294 million worldwide.
- The movie posted a roughly 70% second-weekend decline and then fell about 59% in its third weekend, dropping out of the domestic top five and losing many premium-format screenings.
- Industry estimates place production costs near $165 million and put theatrical break-even between roughly $412 million and $500 million, making pure box-office profitability unlikely at current pace.
- Lucasfilm has responded by releasing an in-theater director’s commentary edition to drive repeat viewings and is counting on streaming windows, Grogu merchandise and theme-park tie-ins to offset weak ticket sales.
- The film’s mixed critical reception versus stronger audience scores and fierce summer competition are being read as a test of whether Disney should keep moving streaming hits into theatrical releases.
