While the amount was less than hoped for by Warner Brothers, James Gunn’s reinvention of the Suicide Squad took home the top prize at this weekend’s box office race.
While the amount was less than hoped for by Warner Brothers, James Gunn’s reinvention of the Suicide Squad took home the top prize at this weekend’s box office race.
The Dwayne Johnson and Emily Blunt-led film also took in over $30 million in Disney+ purchases and an additional $27.6 million overseas for a healthy $91 million worldwide start.
For a film with a $110 million production budget, a $13 million start for Snake Eyes will almost certainly put the toys back on the shelf, with little hope for a future G.I. Joe film or sequel.
Space Jam: A New Legacy went hard to the hoop for the weekend box office win, unseating last week’s champion, Marvel’s Black Widow.
Black Widow is currently estimated to take home $87.8 million at the weekend box office, racing past the previous pandemic-era record of $70 million set by Universal Studios F9 last month.
The third Conjuring film took in $24 million domestically and added an additional $33.1 million overseas in its opening weekend, in spite of the fact that the film was available to view at home on HBO Max.
