Box Office: ‘Force Awakens’ Tops $800M, But Can It Hold Off DiCaprio? [VIDEO]

Star Wars: The Force Awakens may or may not win the weekend box office in its fourth frame of release. But for one night it’s the second place film, which says more about the over-performance of Leonardo DiCaprio’s The Revenant than anything to do with Star Wars.

The Walt Disney sci-fi blockbuster earned $10.76m yesterday, down a not-unreasonable 67% from last Friday (which was New Year’s Day). That’s a drop similar to Lord of the Rings: Return of the King on its fourth Friday.

Yes it fell to second place last night since The Revenant earned around $14.5 million yesterday.
