Walt Disney Studios Motion Pictures / MGN LOS ANGELES (AP) – “Star Wars: The Force Awakens” soared to a galactic $1 billion in ticket sales over a record-breaking weekend at the Christmas box office.

That tremendous take boosted holiday box-office totals to new heights: $295.5 million, which bests the $269.8 million record “Avatar” helped set in 2009. “The Force Awakens” has blasted through domestic and international records since its release two weeks ago.
