In limited release, the Sundance breakout film “Past Lives” launched with an impressive $58,067 per-screen average on four screens. It opened with $12.3 million in ticket sales. Director Rob Savage’s $35 million film, starring Sophie Thatcher and Chris Messina, had originally been intended to debut on Hulu before the studio pivoted. The film added $42.4 million internationally over the weekend.ĭisney also supplied the weekend’s top counter-programming option in “The Boogeyman,” a mostly well-received horror adaptation of a Stephen King short story. But overseas, where previous Disney live-action remakes have thrived, is proving harder territory this time.
Having cost a reported $250 million to make, “The Little Mermaid” was met with mixed reviews but more enthusiasm from audiences, which gave it an “A” CinemaScore.
After launching with $95.5 million and $117.5 million over the four-day Memorial Day weekend, “The Little Mermaid” dipped 57%, partly due to the formidable competition from “Across the Spider-Verse.”
