Happy Sunday, and welcome to a very brief edition of “This Week, In a Galaxy Far, Far Away“. There was absolutely nothing happening this week! The Mandalorian and Grogu held steady at the US box office at #6, but it suffered another drop of more than 50%. It seems pretty definitive now that it will become the first Star Wars movie to not gross $200M at the domestic box office. Worldwide, it may not cross $400M either — a failure, by all means. Obsession has already outgrossed it in the US.

 

In happier news, though, we have a new Character Spotlight on Lama Su, the Prime Minister of Kamino during the production of the clone army. Tyler and Tom also had an interesting discussion on Thursday’s SWNN Live! about the box office prospects for Starfighter next year. Check it out here.

Three Things That May Have Flown Casual

 

In case you missed it: There is a director’s commentary for The Mandalorian and Grogu already available. You can check it out while watching the movie by using the TheatersEars app. In it, Jon Favreau revealed a bunch of behind-the-scenes details, some of which we included here.
Gaming news: A bunch of new details for Star Wars Zero Company were revealed this week about the characters and how the game will look and feel; check them out here and here. We also learned that Cyberpunk 2077 writer Tony Elias will serve as narrative director on The Fate of the Old Republic.
Publishing updates: We have a new review from Josh on Shadow of Maul #4, check it out here.

 

 

 

And that was it! Pretty short recap this week, and I also don’t have many new thoughts to share. I hope you have a great week, and I’ll see you next Sunday!

 


Miguel Fernández is a Spanish student that has movies as his second passion in life. His favorite movie of all time is The Lord of the Rings, but he is also a huge Star Wars fan. However, fantasy movies are not his only cup of tea, as movies from Scorsese, Fincher, Kubrick or Hitchcock have been an obsession for him since he started to understand the language of filmmaking. He is that guy who will watch a black and white movie, just because it is in black and white.
