Baby Yoda re-sets Star Wars films with global opening

Baby Yoda brought crowds to movie theatres ‌over the US Memorial Day weekend, putting Star Wars film The Mandalorian and Grogu on track to collect roughly $US165 million ($A231 million) around ‌the globe.

The movie topped box office charts in the United States and Canada, where it was expected to bring in about $US102 million.

That would edge above pre-weekend forecasts for Friday through Monday, but rank as the smallest opening for any Star Wars film under Disney.
