"Captain America: Brave New World" underperforms at box office

"Captain America: Brave New World" has had a slow box office performance. It recently crossed the $400 million mark globally, tying it with "Eternals," which is seen as a failure for Marvel. This latest "Captain America" film is now ranked as the eighth lowest-scoring movie in the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU). Many of the lower-ranked films are older titles from when the MCU was just starting. Recent releases like "The Marvels" and "Eternals" are also viewed as flops. The movie's budget was $180 million, and it needs to earn $425 million to break even. While it may still reach this target, its performance is not what Disney had hoped for. The success of the film is uncertain, as it has not performed strongly compared to other MCU projects. Looking ahead, Marvel's future films are expected to do better. Characters like Sam Wilson, who leads "Brave New World," may not return until the next Avengers movies. Upcoming films, such as "Thunderbolts" and "The Fantastic Four," are anticipated to attract larger audiences, which could improve Marvel's box office performance moving forward.
