‘Obsession’ Has Dethroned ‘The Mandalorian And Grogu’ At The Box Office
The $1 million horror film posted a 39% second-week revenue gain and reached $95 million worldwide, according to box office tracking.
- On Wednesday, the horror film Obsession outperformed The Mandalorian and Grogu at the domestic box office, earning $5.6 million compared to the Star Wars entry's $4.1 million.
- Produced on a $1 million budget, Obsession has already grossed $95 million worldwide in two weeks, establishing filmmaker Curry Barker as a prominent talent in Hollywood.
- The Mandalorian and Grogu currently tracks below the performance of Solo, despite the film having already exceeded its $165 budget.
- Barker has wrapped a second film titled Anything But Ghosts, starring Bryce Dallas Howard and Aaron Paul, and is set to direct the 10th installment of The Texas Chainsaw Massacre.
- Disney's upcoming Star Wars Starfighter, scheduled for next year, carries significant risk as it reportedly features no existing characters from past Star Wars media.
