Baby Yoda has once again captivated audiences, boosting the latest 'Star Wars' film, 'The Mandalorian and Grogu,' to a global opening of $165 million during the U.S. Memorial Day weekend.
According to Walt Disney, the film led box office rankings in the United States and Canada, with an anticipated taking of $102 million in these territories.
