The Marvels Predicted to Flop
Box office analysts are spelling doom for The Marvels.
According to forecasts by Box Office Pro, the domestic opening of Marvel’s next big blockbuster will generate between $50 million and $75 million. That’s less than half of what Captain Marvel managed in 2019.
Reports also say presales are “alarmingly low,” down 69% behind Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3, and 72% behind Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania. All in all, it’s not looking good ahead of The Marvels’ release date on November 10, especially given its reported $270+ million gross budget.
Despite damning early signs, however, it’s unlikely to cause the Marvel machine too much damage. It can recoup costs through merchandising and streaming sales. And, of course, if the film is any good, word of mouth will build. So don’t count it out just yet.
And it doesn't mean you can't enjoy these new images released for The Marvels.
In The Marvels, Brie Larson’s Captain Marvel teams up with other MCU characters in Iman Vellani’s Ms. Marvel, Teynoah Parris’ Monica Rambeau, and Samuel L. Jackson’s Nick Fury, to take on a dangerous Kree warlord.
It hits cinemas November 10.
