Summary

  • Disney's latest Phase 5 film, The Marvels, has become the lowest-grossing MCU movie in history, generating only $197 million compared to The Incredible Hulk's $264.8 million.
  • Disney has decided to stop reporting on The Marvels' box office numbers due to its underwhelming performance, including a monumental 78% drop in its second weekend, the largest for any Marvel movie.
  • Disney CEO Bob Iger's explanation that the film suffered because it was shot during COVID and lacked executive supervision has caused controversy, as there are clearly other contributors, including 2023's strikes and undue hate aimed at the female-led production.
