“Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker” officially reached the $1 billion mark

Recently, Disney announced that the latest part Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker has officially reached the 1 billion USD mark after 24 days of release. This is a result that was within Disney’s prediction as well as that of fans around the world in general.

Despite bringing in big revenue, in fact, The Rise of Skywalker is considered the worst film of this series. The movie had the lowest opening in Star Wars history. However, this does not affect the film’s destructive power at the present time.

After being released widely around the world, The Rise of Skywalker’s revenue is increasing sharply and will continue to destroy cinemas in the near future.

For Disney in general, 2019 was a great year when 7 films surpassed the dream revenue mark of 1 billion USD. Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker is considered the grand ending of 2019 for Disney.

Star Wars is an American epic space fiction series created by George Lucas, which has been released since 1977. The series tells the adventures of different characters in a distant galaxy.

After the release of the first part, Star Wars became a phenomenon in popular culture worldwide. The film was followed by two sequels titled The Empire Strikes Back (1980) and Return of the Jedi (1983) forming the original trilogy. The subsequent films also received enthusiastic support from the audience. In particular, all eight parts received Oscar nominations and achieved much commercial success with “huge” revenue of up to 8.5 billion USD. This also helps the series rank 3rd in the list of highest-grossing film series of all time.

Part 9 of The Rise of Skywalker is currently showing in theaters nationwide.
