Overview
- The film opened over Memorial Day but in its second weekend recorded a steep 69–72% domestic decline and slipped to third place behind A24’s Backrooms and Obsession.
- After the second frame the movie’s cume stands at about $137 million domestically and $109 million overseas, roughly $246 million worldwide by early June.
- Industry reports say IMAX and other exhibitors have shortened or moved planned premium large-format showings to other titles beginning the week of June 5, a change theaters say is driven by soft per‑screen revenue.
- Analysts note the production cost is widely reported near $165 million and industry breakeven estimates are about $400 million, so downstream income from streaming windows, merchandise and parks will be crucial to Disney’s final tally.
- Critics and analysts point to the film’s TV‑like structure and streaming fatigue, plus strong competition from well‑reviewed horror releases, as reasons casual audiences skipped repeat theatrical viewings.
