Situation Flash at the box office in general a disaster. Already the first weekend after the release showed that the film was falling apart. It grossed only $55 million at the North American box office, compared to Shazam: Fury of the Gods but below Black Adamwhich is considered a failure. Now the first numbers of his second weekend are disastrous.
According to sources from Diversityhe hit Flash Fading, with a prediction in the collection last Friday, Saturday and Sunday total $15.3 million. It’s a real box office crash of 73%, pretty much the same as him. Morbiusout of 73.8%, a feature film that ended up grossing only $75 million in the United States.
On the international level, Flash he’s a little better. It has grossed $123.3 million so far, adding to the confirmed $87.6 million in North America for a total of $210.9 million.
Flash had some success in China, earning $13.7 million, Mexico $8.7 million, the UK $5.4 million and Brazil $3.4 million. In Spain, the fee was $1.3 million.
Catastrophe Flash This is a far cry from the comments of those responsible for the study, who described the film as one of the best superhero stories ever told in cinema. The critics did not like it, and the audience definitely did not like the character.
Flash it serves as a reboot of the DC Extended Universe after Peter Safran and James Gunn took over the creative reins of the studio. The goal will be to commission the franchise and supply it with phases like the Marvel Cinematic Universe.
Because Flash Did it end in failure?
There is no definitive answer explaining why. Flash It ended in such a sad failure. Part of the problem has to do with superhero fatigue, which James Gunn even talks about. But the reality is that the DC Extended Universe is extremely rambling, messy, and full of cheesy productions. This caused most of the potential audience to simply ignore the franchise’s production.
In addition, there are the personal problems of Ezra Miller, who, among other things, is accused of abuse, violence, robbery, disturbing the peace. Although the actor pleaded guilty and later apologized, he does not attend any of the promotions for Flash,
Even if the film’s total worldwide box office is $210 million, Flash you need to get twice as much to make it profitable. A figure that, with a 73% box office drop between the first and second week of release, seems almost impossible.
