The latest Star Wars installment, directed by Rian Johnson, made $52.4 million over the weekend, from Dec. 29-Dec. 31, That brings it’s domestic box office total to $517 million, topping Disney’s live-action Beauty and the Beast to becoming the highest domestic release of the year.
The movie brought in over $120 million globally this weekend as well. With that, The Last Jedi has exceeded $1 billion to become the third-biggest global release of the year. It it also ranked as the 24th-biggest release of all-time.
While some Star Wars fans have criticized the movie – and even started a petition to remove this film from the Star Wars cannon, that has not hurt the film’s box office success.
The Last Jedi has already topped last year’s Rogue One: A Star Wars Story in domestic box office numbers.
