At the height of the superhero tree a few years ago, Disney pushed are Marvel's assembly lines to run faster and faster. After a while the quality fell and ticket sales fell.
So Disney delayed the pace. Last year Marvel released one film (the Megasuccessful “Deadpool & Wolverine”) and two Disney+ series. To compare, in 2021 Marvel four films (with mixed results) and five Disney+ series.
Factory problem solved?
Maybe: Marvel's “Captain America: Brave New World” was a run -away no. 1 on the Global Box Office during the weekend. The film, which cost at least $ 300 million to make and market worldwide, was on a pace to sell around $ 84 million in tickets from Thursday to Sunday in the United States and Canada, according to Kassa analysts. Movie visitors abroad were ready to chips in another $ 100 million.
Perhaps not: “Brave New World” received the lowest figure from the Marvel Cinematic Universe ever (B-Minus) from ticket buyers in Cinemascore exit polls. Reviews were only 50 percent positive, according to Rotten Tomatoes, which resulted in a “rotten” rating of the site. Only two Marvel films are lower on the Rotten Tomatoes meter, and both quickly became without box office steam after number 1 starts that were powered by Die-hard fans and marketing bombast.
Those films were 'Eternals', 47 percent positive, which in 2021 had $ 86 million in the sale of opening weeks, after correction for inflation; and “Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania”, 46 percent, which arrived to $ 113 million in 2023 in 2023.
“Quantumania” was directed by the Marvel veteran Peyton. In any other case where a Marvel film has struggled critically or commercially (or both), the director has had little or no experience with vast franchise films, let alone superheroes. Julius Onah directed 'Brave New World'. His earlier feature film CV consisted of two low-budget thrillers and 'The Cloverfield Paradox', a Netflix film that cost $ 45 million.
“Brave New World” Stars Anthony Mackie As Captain America, A Role That Chris Evans Played in Numerous Marvel Movies From 2011 to 2019. Mr. Mackie Joined What is Known as the Marvel Cinematic Universe in 2014, when he played a winged superhero called the falcon in “Captain America: The Winter Soldier.” In 2021, his character took over as Captain America in the last episode of the Disney+ series 'Falcon and the Winter Soldier'.
Harrison Ford plays the lead role in “Brave New World” as a power -bound US president who changes to Red Hulk and destroyed destruction in the government and society.
