<p>Disney&#8217;s latest superhero movie &#8220;<a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/female-led-the-marvels-has-worst-ever-opening-weekend-in-mcu-history" target="_blank" rel="noopener">The Marvels</a>&#8221; continues to be a box office disaster as the female-led film suffered the worst second-weekend drop of all time for Marvel Studios.</p>
<p>The Brie Larson-led Marvel Cinematic Universe film fell 78 percent in box office performance for its second weekend out and is currently tracking as the worst second-week showing for any modern day Hollywood superhero film, the <a href="https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/movies/movie-news/hunger-games-prequel-box-office-opening-1235663158/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Hollywood Reporter</a> reported.</p>
<p>&#8220;The Marvels&#8221; is a sequel to the 2019 film &#8220;Captain Marvel&#8221; and has managed to beat out the previous holder of the worst dropoff from opening weekend held by the third film in the &#8220;Ant Man&#8221; franchise, &#8220;Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania,&#8221; which experienced a 69 percent drop.</p>

<p>The new Marvel film failed to meet expectations its opening weekend with the box office estimates lowered before the release from $75-$80 million in projected ticket sales to just $60-$65 million, as previously <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/female-led-film-the-marvels-lowers-box-office-expectations-to-60m-ahead-of-premiere" target="_blank" rel="noopener">reported</a>. Opening weekend proved worse, with the movie earning just $47 million, and the showing is officially being called the worst debut in MCU history, <a href="https://variety.com/2023/film/box-office/box-office-the-marvels-bombs-worst-marvel-cinematic-universe-opening-weekend-1235788513/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Variety</a> reported.</p>
<p>The second weekend out, the new Marvel film continued to struggle, earning $10.2 million, — for a total after two weeks of just $65 million — THR noted. And overseas the movie did just about as well, adding $19.5 million from 52 markets for a total of $96.3 million internationally and $161.3 million globally, <a href="https://www.boxofficemojo.com/title/tt10676048/?ref_=bo_se_r_1" target="_blank" rel="noopener">BoxOfficeMojo</a> noted.</p>
<p>&#8220;The Marvels&#8221; is led by three females and was directed by black female director, Nia DaCosta, <a href="https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/movies/movie-news/the-marvels-box-office-marvel-1235639482/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">THR</a> noted.</p>
<p>&#8220;Carol Danvers, aka Captain Marvel, has reclaimed her identity from the tyrannical Kree and taken revenge on the Supreme Intelligence,&#8221; a description about the film read, per THR. &#8220;However, unintended consequences see her shouldering the burden of a destabilized universe. When her duties send her to an anomalous wormhole linked to a Kree revolutionary, her powers become entangled with two other superheroes to form the Marvels.&#8221;</p>
<p>Only two other films in the Marvel Cinematic Universe have opened to lower than $60 million: &#8220;The Incredible Hulk&#8221; in 2008, which brought in $55.4 million, not adjusted for inflation, as previously <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/female-led-film-the-marvels-lowers-box-office-expectations-to-60m-ahead-of-premiere" target="_blank" rel="noopener">reported,</a> and &#8220;Ant-Man&#8221; in 2015, which earned $57.2 million domestically, not adjusted for inflation.</p>
