Au rythme où vont les choses, Thunderbirds sera bientôt une plus grosse IP que Star Wars…
Directed by Jon Favreau, « The Mandalorian and Grogu » opened with an estimated $81.9 million over the weekend, with that number growing to $102 million when accounting for the Monday holiday. That is slightly less than 2018’s « Solo: A Star Wars Story » ($84.4 million three-day/$103 million four-day), which also opened over Memorial Day weekend. « Solo » ultimately bombed at the box office, failing to cross $400 million globally against an outsized budget close to $300 million. By contrast, « The Mandalorian and Grogu » was made for a reported net budget of $165 million, by far the cheapest in the franchise of the Disney era.
