The Mandalorian and Grogu, featuring Pedro Pascal, has faced a disappointing box office performance, with only $24 million in U.S. sales during its second weekend, reflecting a steep 70% decline from its opening weekend. This downturn signals a potential decline in the cultural impact of the beloved Star Wars franchise. In contrast, Daisy Ridley's film Cleaner has quietly taken the streaming world by storm, becoming one of the ten most-streamed movies on Prime Video. Released in February 2025, Cleaner combines elements of action and thriller, telling the story of an ex-soldier turned window-cleaner who must save hostages from radical activists. Ridley is also involved in upcoming projects, including Ebenezer: A Christmas Carol, which features Johnny Depp's return to Hollywood, and the romantic comedy The Last Resort. As Ridley's projects gain traction, they highlight a shift in viewer interest away from traditional blockbuster franchises.
