Star Wars: The Mandalorian and Grogu officially hit theaters on May 22nd. Between the heavy promotion of film in media and the opening of the new Mandalorian-themed missions on Millennium Falcon: Smugglers Run, which opened in Hollywood Studios and Disneyland with the release of the movie, this movie has been discussed a lot.

Yet, before its release, many Star Wars fans were not looking forward to this new film. However, the box office sales after the opening weekend tell a different story. So let’s get into it!
Despite the known skepticism from Star Wars fans, given the disappointment they have felt in the franchise since it merged with Disney, Star Wars: The Mandalorian and Grogu was a big box office success! The movie cost 300 million dollars to create, and in the first weekend alone has made over 100 million dollars in box office sales, making a strong start in its debut weekend.

This movie marks the first in an unofficial “rebrand” of the Star Wars franchise, after Disney realized that they were relying on quantity over quality, and the films and TV shows they were putting out were not being met with fan support. The hope with this film was that it would provide new interest in Star Wars, both from loyal fans and also appeal to a new audience.

While this film has still not received glowing Critic reviews, the fans seem to be really loving it, with the current fan score on Rotten Tomatoes sitting at 89%, which is the highest fan score any film has gotten on the film review site since Disney and Star Wars merged. We are very interested to see how the public opinion of this film forms the longer it is out, and the more people have the chance to see it.
