Box office success can be a double-edged sword, with Disney executives reportedly going into a spin about the latest movie instalment in the multibillion-dollar franchise Star Wars.
The New York Post's Page Six column has reported that executives are unhappy with the first cut of Rogue One: A Star Wars Story and parts of the movie will have to be re-shot over four weeks in July at a great expense.
It is due for release in December.
Unlike Star Wars: Episode VII — The Force Awakens, Rogue One is not being directed by J.J. Abrams but Gareth Edwards, whose blockbuster experience includes 2014 special-effects movie Godzilla.
It will star Australian actor Ben Mendelsohn, as well as Felicity Jones, Forest Whitaker, Mads Mikkelsen and Diego Luna.
The plot will focus on a time between Episodes III and IV, when resistance fighters try to steal the Death Star's plans and undermine the Emperor's evil rule.
A Disney source told the column: "The filmmaking team and the studio always anticipated additional shooting and second unit work to make the film the absolute best it can be, and the actors were aware there would be additional shooting.
"Coming off The Force Awakens, there's an incredibly high bar for this movie and we have a responsibility to the franchise and to the fans to deliver the best possible movie we can."
The Force Awakens netted $US2.067 billion ($2.86 billion) worldwide and cost $US245 million ($339 million) to make.
