Claim
Return of the Jedi grossed $314.3 million in the United States and Canada, and $166 million in other territories, for a worldwide total of $480 million, against a production budget of about $32.5 million.
Correction
Those box-office totals are outdated. Current box-office trackers list the film at about $316.5M domestic, $165.9M international, and roughly $482.4M worldwide.
Full reasoning
Current box-office reference data contradicts these totals.
- Box Office Mojo lists lifetime grosses for Star Wars: Episode VI – Return of the Jedi at $316,566,101 domestic, $165,900,281 international, and $482,466,382 worldwide.
- The Numbers independently lists $316,465,003 domestic, $165,900,281 international, and $482,365,284 worldwide.
So the article's figures ($314.3M domestic / $166M international / $480M worldwide) are no longer accurate as written. The discrepancy appears to come from later rerelease revenue being omitted or incompletely reflected.
