The Marvels records lowest opening weekend

"The Marvels," the 33rd installment in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, had a disappointing opening weekend with just $47 million at the box office. This is a significant drop from its predecessor, "Captain Marvel," which opened with $153.4 million. The film, directed by Nia DaCosta and featuring a predominantly female cast, received mixed reviews and a "B" CinemaScore from audiences. Analysts suggest that this may be a sign of superhero fatigue setting in for audiences, as the genre becomes increasingly crowded. Despite this, Marvel still has successful releases like "Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3" and "Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse.
