'The Marvels' is the lowest-grossing film in Marvel history

After 1 month in theaters and the end of its release period, The Marvels was withdrawn from the box office in a "disastrous" state: the film earned 80 million USD in the North American market and 197 million USD globally, not reaching the 200 million USD mark (the film's production and promotion budget was more than 220 million USD).

The Marvels movie received a score of 62% on Rotten Tomatoes

Such "low" revenue makes The Marvels the superhero movie with the lowest revenue in Marvel movie history. Even in the press release on Sunday (local time), Disney sadly announced: "With the current declining revenue of The Marvels , we will stop updating the international revenue (outside the North American market) and global revenue of the movie".

The reception of this superhero movie from both experts and the general public is not too low - 62% among experts (acceptable level) and 82% of the audience loves the movie.

The Marvels dethroned its 2008 sibling The Incredible Hulk (which grossed $264 million worldwide, not accounting for inflation), which previously held the title of lowest-grossing film in the MCU.

The source compares The Marvels to the studio's Ant-Man and the Wasp: Qunatumania , which grossed $214 million domestically and $476 million worldwide, despite receiving poor reviews on Rotten Tomatoes (critics gave it a 46 percent approval rating) — lower than The Marvels .

The Marvels movie failed because the movie idea was not groundbreaking.

Not stopping there, The Marvels also holds the title of being the movie that… failed to reach the $100 million mark in the MCU in the North American market. The first movie released in 2019 "won big" at the box office with an opening of $153 million. However, the MCU still has many other projects "rolling".

One of the main reasons why The Marvels was not well received at the box office was because of its repetitive plot and boring content. Although the filmmakers included the ever-expanding multiverse in the film, even this detail could not save the film when it was "rehashed" through a series of other film and television projects in the MCU.
