UPDATE: Solo has now taken in $161 million, compared to Rogue one which had taken in $376 million. That means Solo is down 57%. And it’s getting worse and worse. In the last 3 days, Solo took in $9 million. During the corresponding time, Rogue One took in $57 million.

Looks like Solo will end up with about $205 million, which will be down 62% from Rogue One. Production costs alone cost Solo $250 -$275 million. Thoughts are that Solo probably would need about $800 to break even, because movie theaters, marketing, film manufacturing, etc all add costs. Likely, it will make less than $400 million internationally.

While many movies have made a lower proportion of their spending back, that $400 million loss would be the biggest loss ever.

Real sources are projection a 50 to 80 million write off. 4 movies and a multiseason TV shows in 3 1/2 years is too much.
