Rogue One<\/b><\/i> ruled the box office for a third straight week as 2016 came to an end.<\/p>\n

The Star Wars<\/i> prequel earned an estimated $49.5 million in North American theatres between Friday and Sunday<\/a>. That raises the film\u2019s domestic total to $424.9 million and makes it the second-highest grossing film of the year<\/a> in North America \u2014 behind Finding Dory<\/i> \u2014 and the 14th-highest grossing film of all time<\/a> domestically.<\/p>\n

Overseas, it\u2019s a slightly different story. Rogue One<\/i> has earned $350 million to date internationally, for a global total of $774.9 million. That\u2019s enough to rank 13th among the year\u2019s English-language films overseas<\/a> and ninth globally<\/a>, and on the all-time charts the film currently ranks 133rd overseas<\/a> and 67th worldwide<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Star Wars<\/i> films generally don\u2019t earn as much of their money overseas, proportionally speaking, as most blockbusters of that sort do. Last year\u2019s The Force Awakens<\/i>, for example, is the top-grossing film of all time by a huge margin in North America<\/a>, but it ranks behind three other films \u2014 Avatar<\/i>, Titanic<\/i> and Furious 7<\/i> \u2014 overseas<\/a>.<\/p>\n

However, Rogue One<\/i> could do better than usual when it opens in China next week, thanks to the fact that Donnie Yen and Wen Jiang are in its ensemble cast.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, in other box-office news\u2026<\/p>\n

Sing<\/b><\/i> earned $42.8 million and ranked second in its second week, thereby raising its domestic cume to $166.4 million. The film has earned another $97.8 million overseas, for a global total of $263.2 million.<\/p>\n

Passengers<\/b><\/i> earned $16.2 million and ranked third in its second week, thereby raising its domestic cume to $61.5 million. The film has earned another $6.4 million overseas, for a global total of $67.9 million.<\/p>\n

Moana<\/b><\/i> earned $10.9 million and ranked fourth in its sixth week, thereby raising its domestic cume to $210 million. The film has earned another $189.1 million overseas, for a global total of $399.1 million.<\/p>\n

Why Him?<\/b><\/i> earned $10.6 million and ranked fifth in its second week, thereby raising its domestic cume to $34.6 million. The film has earned another $14.3 million overseas, for a global total of $48.9 million.<\/p>\n

Fences<\/b><\/i> earned $10 million and ranked sixth in its third week, thereby raising its domestic cume to $29.7 million. The film does not appear to have been released overseas yet.<\/p>\n

La La Land<\/b><\/i> earned $9.5 million and ranked seventh in its fourth week, thereby raising its domestic cume to $34.2 million. The film has earned another $27.8 million overseas, for a global total of $62 million.<\/p>\n

Assassin\u2019s Creed<\/b><\/i> earned $8.6 million and ranked eighth in its second week, thereby raising its domestic cume to $39.6 million. The film has earned another $44.1 million overseas, for a global total of $83.7 million.<\/p>\n

Manchester by the Sea<\/b><\/i> earned $4.24 million and ranked ninth in its seventh week, thereby raising its domestic cume to $28.5 million. The film has earned another $1 million overseas, for a global total of $29.5 million.<\/p>\n

And Collateral Beauty<\/b><\/i> earned $4.15 million and ranked tenth in its third week, thereby raising its domestic cume to $25.8 million. The film has earned another $20 million overseas, for a global total of $45.8 million.<\/p>\n
