Shazam! 2 is on track to have one of the worst openings for DC movies — and for superhero movies, too.
According to Hollywood Reporterthe film earned US$ 11.7 million in its first day of exhibition this Friday (17) and is expected to close its first weekend with US$ 30 million, well behind the US$ 53.5 million raised by the first film in 2019.
Initial estimates suggested that Shazam! 2 could have an opening of at least US$ 35 million, but everything indicates that the film will earn even less.
