"The Marvels" has not flown further, faster or higher in its disappointing $47 million opening weekend box office. The sequel to 2019's billion-dollar success "Captain Marvel" flopped, earning itself the lowest opening weekend in the 15-year-long franchise's history with over 30 films.
The film has made $61 million overseas but still, it is not a confident showing for the Marvel franchise that is grappling with what people have deemed "superhero fatigue" for its bombardment of Marvel shows and films after "Avengers: Endgame." "The Marvels" may have opened with the lowest box office of a Marvel movie this year but the studio has been showing signs of distress with the critically and audience-panned “Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania” and “Eternals.”
