Last Jedi Pulls in $21.6 million on Monday, for $241.6 million Four-Day Total
December 19, 2017
Star Wars: The Last Jedi earned $21.6 million on Monday for a four-day total of $241.6 million. This represents a 58% decline from Sunday, which is steeper decline than both Rogue One (53%) and The Force Awakens (34%). However, this is not reason to panic, as The Last Jedi doesn’t have nearly as many schools closed for holidays as the other films had. Yesterday, only 31% of schools were closed, compared to 48% during the same point in Rogue One’s run and a whopping 77% for The Force Awakens. We will continue to track numbers throughout the week and I suspect The Last Jedi will have better holds from now on.
Internationally, the film earned Star Wars: The Last Jedi $22.1 million, and again, direct comparisons to the previous two films are difficult, as the number of markets on holiday is vastly different. The film managed $4.3 million in the U.K. for a total of $41.7 million so far. It also topped $2 million in both Japan ($2.2 million for a running tally of $16.6 million) and in Germany ($2.1 million / $25.4 million). Meanwhile, it earned at least $1 million in Australia ($1.8 million / $17.8 million); France ($1.2 million / $20.1 million); and Brazil ($1.0 million / $8.2 million). Globally, the film has pulling in a stunning $494.6 million, making it the 16th-biggest hit of the year.
