Moana's Box Office Plunge: Aiming to Beat Aquaman 2 Flop
11 Aug
Summary
- Live-action Moana dropped to #7 domestically, losing theaters.
- Moana's domestic haul is $121.6 million, aiming for Aquaman 2's total.
- Aquaman 2's domestic gross was $124.5 million, a significant flop.
Disney's live-action adaptation of Moana has faltered at the North American box office, dropping to seventh place and facing significant financial losses. The film has collected $121.6 million domestically since its release on July 10, and is now notably close to surpassing the domestic gross of Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom, another box office disappointment.
Aquaman 2, a sequel to the successful first film, only managed to earn $124.5 million domestically, a stark contrast to its predecessor's $335.1 million. Moana's current trajectory suggests it will soon edge past this figure, adding a major studio flop to its own list of underperforming titles. The film lost 545 theaters in its fifth weekend and saw a nearly 47% drop in earnings from the previous week.
