‘Furiosa A Mad Max Saga’ Stalls at the Domestic Box Office

Anya Taylor-Joy streaks black war paint across her face in Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga

The Big Picture Mere weeks after Universal’s The Fall Guy underwhelmed in its opening weekend despite weeks of positive buildup, Warner Bros.’ hotly anticipated Furiosa: A Mad Max Sagais looking at one of the worst Memorial Day debuts in decades. Directed by George Miller, the prequel to 2015’s Mad Max: Fury Road grossed $10.2 million on its first Friday, including the $3.5 million that it made in Thursday previews.

These are the sort of figures that will leave studios scratching their heads for a while, because reviews for Furiosa have been strong following its Cannes Film Festival premiere. The movie is currently sitting at a “fresh” 89% score on the aggregator website Rotten Tomatoes, with Collider’s Therese Lacson praising Anya Taylor-Joy’s central performance in her review.

The fourth spot was claimed by Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes, which added $3.4 million on its third Friday, taking its running domestic total to $112 million. The big-budget science-fiction sequel is expected to generate around $13 million over the three-day weekend, and $16 million across the four-day holiday period, pushing its domestic gross to $125 million by Sunday.
