Where Will 'Rise of Skywalker' Rank Among Disney's 'Star Wars' Movies at the Box

• https://observer.com, By Brandon Katz

In 2017, The Last Jedi earned $220 million in its debut before collecting $620 million in North America and $1.3 billion worldwide. Three out of Disney's four Star Wars features have grossed at least $1 billion, and the studio has released five $1 billion grossers this year alone. Don't worry, you're not the only one feeling inadequate about your finances right now.

Where will J.J. Abrams' The Rise of Skywalker fall on the monetary spectrum for Lucasfilm?

As the conclusion to the Skywalker saga, it would be downright shocking if it didn't at least cross the $1 billion mark. By looking at how the previous two Star Wars episodes performed at the box office and extrapolating those trends alongside Skywalker's tracking numbers, we can form a rough prediction in terms of ticket sales. Though tracking projections are notoriously fickle, The Rise of Skywalker is currently on pace for a debut between $175 million and $210 million, per TheWrap.
