‘The Mandalorian and Grogu’ Tracking For Worst Opening Weekend in ‘Star Wars’ History

Star Wars has long stood as one of the most successful franchises in film history.

The crisis inside Warner Bros. Games has reached new depths. In its Q1 2025 financial report, Warner Bros. Discovery confirmed a staggering 48% decline in revenue from WB Games, citing a lack of new releases and the long shadow of last year’s disastrous Sweet Baby Inc. collab “Suicide Squad: Kill The Justice League” launch.

However, those rumors were put to rest this week.

Thunderbolts Sees Average Second Weekend Drop After Lackluster Opening Weekend — Far Better Than The Marvels, Brave New World

After a lackluster debut, Thunderbolts is showing some staying power in its second weekend drop at the box office — at least by recent Marvel standards.

Marvel Studios’ latest team-up flick pulled in $33.1 million domestically this weekend, bringing its 10-day North American total to $128.5 million and a global tally of $272.2 million. That’s not blockbuster-tier success for the once-dominant Marvel Cinematic Universe, but the drop from its opening weekend offers a glimmer of hope for a studio in desperate need of it.
