Star Wars 8 Retired in China

Star Wars 8: The Last Jedi has been completely retired in China. This is reported by The Hollywood Reporter with reference to the official information of the Chinese authorities. The reason is the lack of interest in the picture among the Chinese viewers.

"His box office was much worse than we could have imagined," - commented a representative of one of the largest rental chains Lumiere Pavilions. In its first week of release, Episode 8 grossed just over $ 30 million in the Chinese box office - a disastrous result for a project of this magnitude.

Note that Star Wars has never been particularly popular in China, since the original trilogy in the country has never been released. However, the seventh episode was able to gross more than $ 100 million at the national box office.

The failure in China did not prevent Star Wars 8 from collecting an impressive box office at the worldwide box office. At the time of this writing, the movie has grossed nearly $ 1.3 billion, making it one of the top ten most successful projects in cinema history.

Star Wars action figures are available for purchase from FunkoPOP's online store.
