The movie, which cost $300 million to make and market, was expected to collect about $102 million from Thursday through Monday at domestic theaters.

"The Mandalorian and Grogu" just opened in theaters, and it’s already projected to make less money in its debut than 2018’s Disney "Star Wars" misfire "Solo: A Star Wars Story."

'The Mandalorian and Grogu' makes $12 million at the box office in previews.
