Needless to say, if Rogue One: A Star Wars Story puts up these sorts of opening numbers then Disney and Lucasfilm can officially call the standalone Star Wars movie experiment a success.
In addition to the movie opening in North America on Friday, it’s also hitting several foreign territories at the same time.
The current projection, according to the Los Angeles Times, is that the film will do about $150 million domestically, combined with it doing about the same throughout all other areas combined.
