‘Star Wars: Mandalorian & Grogu’ Hopes To Hyper-Space To $160M Global Opening Over Memorial Day Weekend – Box Office Preview - Deadline
Overview
Projections that The Mandalorian and Grogu would open near $160 million globally were borne out, with the film posting about $163 million worldwide. Still, A24’s Backrooms — forecast to start above $40 million — emerged as a surprise challenger for the domestic top spot, underscoring how smaller genre films can complicate franchise launches. The weekend’s dynamics highlighted both the strength of the Star Wars brand and uncertainty about sustaining broader audience growth; the recent death of Marcia Lucas, the Oscar-winning editor of the original Star Wars, renewed attention to the franchise’s origins and the craftspeople who shaped its early success.
