'1917' Is Making Way More Than Expected at the Box Office!

'1917' Is Making Way More Than Expected at the Box Office!

After three weeks at number one at the domestic box office, Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker will be dethroned this weekend by the new war drama 1917.

The Golden Globe-winning movie is on track to gross $37.2 million for its wide opening weekend, according to Deadline.

This number is way more than box office experts originally expected. Before the Golden Globes, the movie was tracking to do $20 million for its wide opening and that was bumped up to $25 million on the Monday after the awards show.

The movie, starring George Mackay and Dean-Charles Chapman, earned an A- CinemaScore, so it definitely will have some great word of mouth for the next couple months.

Sam Mendes won the Best Director award at the Golden Globes and the movie won Best Picture.
