New reports are claiming that Star Wars: The Force Awakens could open around the world with an earning of over $500 million. This would make the film the highest-grossing opener in history, and it could go on to become the highest-grossing movie of all time.
Star Wars: The Force Awakens is probably the most anticipated movie of 2015, so hitting the $500 million mark is not farfetched. When the second trailer was released, many fans were brought to tears as geeks around the world jumped for joy. Even folks who are not fans of the franchise have found themselves intrigued by what is going on.
"If it pleases the fans of the old movies and also appeals to kids, watch out," according to box-office analyst Phil Contrino.
