At the end of the day it's not how fast you get to $1 billion, but if you get there, and "The Rise of Skywalker" will certainly do that, as the movie's worldwide total to date is $918.8 million. But the performance by "Skywalker" in the coming weeks will be interesting to track, as it might finish its theatrical run without getting to $600 million domestically. A figure that both "Force Awakens" and "Last Jedi" surpassed.
Then it was a battle for third place between "Little Women" and "The Grudge." Greta Gerwig's adaptation of the classic edged out the horror with a $13.5 million take. But the latest reboot of the "The Grudge" has nothing to be upset about. Despite a 16% Rotten Tomatoes score and an F CinemaScore, the movie overperformed with a $11.
BI: Calls New Orleans one of the rudest cities. Also BI: Can't even spell.
