Box Office Results: The Fall Guy Tumbles, Star Wars Soars
06.05.2024 - 14:17 / comingsoon.net / James Cameron / George Lucas / David Leitch
Universal’s The Fall Guy stumbled out of the gates, earning $28.5 million in its opening frame, far below the $35M many anticipated, per Deadline. That’s about on par with most comedies of this ilk (see Sandra Bullock’s The Lost City), but David Leitch’s action comedy cost anywhere between $130M-$150M to produce and needed to get off to a strong start, particularly considering the upcoming competition.
Still, Fall Guy earned an A CinemaScore and strong reviews, so the hope is that it eventually reaches $100M domestically. Also, that’s Gosling’s third-highest opening behind Barbie ($162M) and Blade Runner 2049 ($32.7M), and Blunt’s ninth-best just behind Edge of Tomorrow ($28.7M).
Worldwide, the Ryan Gosling/Emily Blunt pic earned $65.4M.
Elsewhere, the 25th-anniversary re-release of George Lucas’ Star Wars: The Phantom Menace added a nice chunk of change to its already robust gross, earning $8.1M domestically and $14.5M globally. That ranks on the higher end of re-releases, just below the $10.5M domestic earned by James Cameron’s Avatar in 2022.
Also opening this week was the horror flick Tarot, which only managed $6.5M from 3,104 theaters. Last week’s champ, Challengers, collected $7.6M (-49%) in its sophomore frame to raise its domestic cume to $29.5M.
This week sees the release of Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes.

Star Wars: Squadrons is 95% off and also, the perfect May 4th night in - shame the multiplayer's dead
Happy May 3rd, Battlestar Galactica fans! Remember what John Dune said about living long and prospering? He said: Oh, look, objectively excellent dogfighter Star Wars: Squadrons is under two quid on Steam. As Edwin pointed out to me, that’s about the price of a third of latte, although he does pay London prices. Also, Edwin, are you going around trying to buy the dregs of people’s lattes? I cannot judge. Were it in short supply, I too would debase myself for caffeine in an instant.

A Free Modern Tomb Raider and LEGO Star War, Cheap Controllers, Historically Low Hades, and More!
Thank your own personal deity—possibly C-3PO as worshipped by Ewoks—it's Friday! Obviously, the two biggest headliners are those freebies—LEGO Star Wars III and Tomb Raider [2013]. Whip up a free (and easily ditched) Amazon Prime Gaming subscription to have and to hold them forever in your GOG library. I recently replayed Lara's reboot as part of the ongoing gaming education of my eldest. Still stands up as a well-Crofted action adventure.
