It could be 'judgment day' for the Terminator franchise.
Despite generally favorable reviews and the return of star Linda Hamilton and producer James Cameron,"Terminator: Dark Fate" has opened well below expectations at the box office. Studios on Sunday estimate that"Dark Fate" earned only $29 million from over 4,000 North American locations. The film from Paramount Pictures cost a reported $185 million to produce.
Internationally,"Dark Fate" did much better, earning $72.9 million from 48 markets. Fox International, not Paramount, is handling international distribution, excluding China. "It's really heartwarming and gives you a lot of faith that there are still a lot of people who want to see stories about real life superheroes," said Focus Features distribution president Lisa Bunnell."There's a real feeling of love for this movie. I think it's inspirational for people to see."
One of the highest profile new films of the weekend, Martin Scorsese's"The Irishman," does not have any box office numbers to report, however, because Netflix declines to provide numbers for its theatrical releases. Starring Robert De Niro, Al Pacino and Joe Pesci, the film which opened in limited release before hitting Netflix on Nov. 27 is expected to be a major Oscars contender.
