To date, Disney has tried to play an original animated film, a Marvel title, and an Emma Stone 101 Dalmatians villainess movie in theaters and on the PVOD tier of the studio’s streaming service, and this weekend they’ll accelerate windows again on the Dwayne Johnson-Emily Blunt theme park-inspired title Jungle Cruise.
Rotten Tomatoes.Shyamalan’s movies have grossed more than $3 billion globally.“Old” is also now the lowest-grossing film to debut at number 1 in July since 1996, Rotten Tomatoes said — excluding last year when theaters were largely closed across the country amid the pandemic.It was a muted weekend overall for movie theaters, according to the review website, as fears over rising COVID-19 cases and the convenience of at-home streaming took its toll.
Marvel Studios is doomed! Movie theaters are going to disappear! The sky is falling! Okay, that’s just hyperbole. But if you look at the last week of box office news, starting with the surprising financial decline of “Black Widow” and the incredibly harsh words from the National Association of Theater Owners (NATO), there is some concern that maybe folks aren’t flocking back to cinemas as fast as we hoped.
Marvel‘s “Black Widow” had a pandemic-record opening making $80.3 million last weekend.

The overseas total is now even with domestic at $132M for $264M global. Contrary to last weekend, Disney did not break out streaming figures this time around.
