'Mickey 17' struggles despite staying box office leader

Bong Joon Ho's film 'Mickey 17' has topped the weekend box office for three weeks but is struggling to attract viewers. It has not yet reached 3 million viewers, falling short of initial expectations. As of March 17, 'Mickey 17' ranks fourth in advance ticket sales, with about 16,700 pre-sales. The film faces increasing competition from new releases as it enters its third week. Released on February 28, 'Mickey 17' follows an expendable worker who is regenerated after dying. Despite high production costs of 118 million USD, its global performance is underwhelming, raising concerns about profitability.
