Still, it would seem that the masses are now more selective with which MCU films they flock to see, with poor reviews and a lack of fan-favorite heroes being a hole that Marvel Studios might not be able to dig itself out of in time to end things with a bang in Avengers: Secret Wars. Even that might not be enough for Deadpool 3, which will notably be R-rated. RELATED: Ant-Man's Hope van Dyne Doesn't Share Her Father's Surname for a Simple ReasonĪll the while, fans have clamored for the X-Men to be introduced, with the mutants and Spider-Man being perhaps the only Marvel properties that still grab instant attention. Likewise, it remains to be seen how some of the mantle swaps will play out with the general public, as Captain America: New World Order will feature Sam Wilson as the new Cap. Unfortunately, the deck is stacked against the recently delayed The Marvels, which notably connects to two Disney+ shows.
3 is likely a lock in terms of being a success, as those films' popularity almost transcends the MCU. If their and Ant-Man's adventures aren't drawing crowds anymore, it could spell doom for what Marvel Studios plans next. But while things don't bode well for the Paul Rudd movie, it could be even worse for the future of the MCU.Īnd many of these films featured fan-favorite heroes who had been seen since the earliest moments of the MCU. This competition is only going to get worse, with Creed III and other upcoming films squashing what remains of Ant-Man 3 like a bug. Alternatives Cocaine Bear and the film Jesus Revolution might not seem like actual competition, but they did surprisingly well in their opening weekends compared to the drop-off for Quantumania. Quantumania is a certified flop in countries like China, which were once major markets for the Marvel Cinematic Universe. The film is currently underperforming everywhere, with its domestic haul actually being something of a bright spot. Many had debated whether the third Ant-Man film would make $100+ million domestic in its opening weekend, and while it pulled this off, it's so far been downhill from there. Quantumania has done even worse, with its 69.7 percent second-weekend drop having a much smaller intake than the DC flick. This reception got reflected in its box office intake, with the film experiencing a 69 percent drop in revenue in its second weekend in theaters. Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice was incredibly controversial, with many seeing its poor reception and contentious nature among even hardcore DC fans as being the moment in which the "DC Extended Universe" was doomed.
