Disney’s “Moana 2” and Universal’s “Wicked” continue their rule atop the box office charts for one more weekend as Sony’s “Kraven the Hunter” and Warner Bros.’ “Lord of the Rings: The War of the Rohirrim” are fizzling fast in their opening weekends.
“Kraven,” a Marvel antihero adaptation with a budget that inflated to $110 million after a strike-induced 14-month release delay, has suffered an opening weekend of just $11 million.
That’s below the $15.3 million opening weekend of “Madame Web” for the lowest opening ever for a Sony-produced Marvel film. With a CinemaScore grade of C and a slew of holiday releases on the horizon, it is looking like “Kraven” won’t last long on the screens of many theaters next weekend.
