‘Revenge of the Sith’ on Track To Be One of the Biggest Re-Releases of All Time After Record-Breaking Box Office Opening

While Ryan Coogler's Sinners drew most of the attention this weekend for its stupendous box office performance, spare a thought for Star Wars: Episode III - Revenge of the Sith, which is breaking its own records. The third installment of the Star Wars prequel trilogy generated $11.3 million on its first day back in theaters, in celebration of its 20th anniversary. The movie is expected to gross anywhere between $25 million and $30 million this weekend, which would put it ahead of Ben Affleck's The Accountant 2 — a remarkable result that proves the cultural potency of the theatrical experience, if Sinners hadn't already.
