The new Star Wars film, "The Mandalorian and Grogu," opened this weekend to $82 million domestically and is projected to reach $165 million globally by Monday. While not a record-breaking debut, its performance exceeded expectations and its lower production budget of $165 million suggests a clearer path to profitability compared to previous Disney-era Star Wars releases. Audience scores were strong, with an A- CinemaScore, indicating potential for sustained word-of-mouth success. AI
