For the first time since its debut, the box office performance of A Minecraft Movie has dipped below the million threshold in North America as of Thursday. The film, which features the talents of Jason Momoa and Jack Black, is nearing the significant 0 million milestone, although projections suggest it may not reach this benchmark over the weekend.
Box Office Dynamics
The PG-rated adaptation of the popular game had been a box office leader until it faced competition from Sinners and, more recently, Star Wars: Revenge of the Sith. While its earnings in the U.S. have declined, there is an expectation that it could re-enter the top three this weekend. Last weekend, A Minecraft Movie garnered .7 million, placing it at #4, just behind The Accountant 2, which earned .5 million.
According to data from Box Office Mojo, the film brought in 9K on its fourth Thursday in the United States, reflecting a significant drop of -53.5% from the previous weekend. With a current domestic total of 4.5 million, it remains shy of the 0 million target.
As reported by Deadline, the film is projected to earn approximately million in its fifth weekend, which would elevate its domestic total to 7.5 million. This leaves it just million short of the coveted 0 million mark, a goal that many hope it will achieve in the coming days before entering its sixth weekend.
On the international front, A Minecraft Movie has accumulated a remarkable 6 million, with expectations to surpass 0 million this weekend. This brings its global total to an impressive 0.5 million, achieved on a production budget of 0 million. Currently, it stands as the highest-grossing Hollywood film of the year, showcasing its widespread appeal since its release on April 4.
