Poor Ant-Man. It'll need a huge prayer to even reach 500 million as its final gross.
Whats alarming about this is the potential boX office success of the reboots for Blade and Fantastic 4 in less than 2 years. If someone like Ant-Man who appeared in Civil War and Endgame and also headlined two solo movies prior to this, could gross less than $500 million worldwide, what is going to happen for Blade and Fantastic 4? Blade and Fantastic 4 have no Civil War/Endgame boost, and won't play a major/supporting role in the other mcu films before their first mcu film is released.
Time will tell.Quantumanina was the third film of the franchise and, for most accounts, it was bad.
Blade will be an origin story and will likely have a much smaller budget plus the fact that the character is well known with 3 films to its own already in its cinematic history and this new iteration, lead by a good actor and have it be inside the MCU should significantly lift hits box office chances. I think it could do over Ant-Man 1(530M) with a similar budget (130M).
F4 will similarly be another origin story of a group of well known characters inside the MCU. Being a team movie and dealing with bigger concepts it should have a bigger bugdet and I bet Marvel will be very careful with that franchise because it will definitely be a big one moving forward and so, I’m theory, less margin for error… Also F4 comes right before the first Avengers film in a long time and that in itself should be a solid boost because it more than likely will lead directly into ATKD.
Most of those dates are already changed.MCU Phase 5 - Worldwide
AM&TW: Quantumania - 476M
GOTG 3 - 835M *
The Marvels - Nov. 10th, 2023
Captain America: BNW - May 3rd, 2024
Thunderbolts - Jul. 26th, 2024
Blade - Sep. 6th, 2024

With the recent boX office trackings, 500 million would be a win at this point.I think it will be between Antman and GOTG. Like 500m-600m, which I see as a decent result. Actually despite all the mud shots at it, Antman’s domestic wasn’t that bad, it is the intl sales that collapsed. It may end up as the 4th highest domestic gross for Disney this year.
Wow, that would be unbelievably low. Could be 1/4 of the first film’s WW gross then.Yeah. Tracking suggests $300m WW is the ceiling right now.
I think its a bump on the road, but they can still recover. They need to be wise with their decisions though in the future.Looks like the glory days are over for now.
Not only are they not going to watch, these projects will contribute to the audience view that not everything needs to be watched anymore, and that then spills over to the films. The MCU needs to string some big hits together soon.I think its a bump on the road, but they can still recover. They need to be wise with their decisions though in the future.
I doubt people are really gonna care to watch Echo, What If? and Agatha neXt year in streaming.
Deadpool should be a hit. Captain America without Chris Evans and most especially Thunderbolts aren't guaranteed.Not only are they not going to watch, these projects will contribute to the audience view that not everything needs to be watched anymore, and that then spills over to the films.

Deapool has so much going on that people are bound to be interested. Word will get out about all the possible crazy cameos. It's hard to be 100% confident about anything else but hopefully they are all good and can put out exciting trailers.Deadpool should be a hit.

What sucks the most is the reboots for 4 and Blade are just few years away after being delayed so many times, and we might not see those two ips do well at the boX office, if Marvel Studios doesn't bounce back neXt year, and the public interest for Marvel movies isn't strong anymore, to recoup the budget of these eXpensive films.
Another reason why I'm hoping Thunderbolts to be canceled. So any goodwill from Deadpool, would benefit Blade or 4, whichever comes out first in 2025.
Well I hope they bounce back in 2024 (unlikely with those shows which are probably eXpensive to make as well), but I hope the two films (Deadpool/Captain America) does well at the boX office.Deapool has so much going on that people are bound to be interested.

I also want the MCU to be in good shape ahead of the arrival of these properties so that they can do as well as possible, particularly X-Men.
