Lionsgate has just had a great success at the box office e John Wick Fans could be partly responsible. The study recorded a clear quarterly loss of $ 94 million and a great factor seems to be the disappointing performance of his latest spin-off of Wick-Universe, Dancer.
THE Ana de Armas-Led open action thrillers on June 6th at solid reviews, but was unable to attract the type of money the main John Wick The films rake. It’s a shame because I thought Ballerina was a great action movie tough!
Set between John Wick: Chapter 3 AND Chapter 4The film follows Eve Macarro, a dancer transformed into Assassin, into a mission fueled by revenge.
Fans received many franchise callbacks, including appearances of Ian McShane, Anjelica Hustonand the delay Lance Reddick In his role of the final screen. Also Keanu Reeves He looks like John Wick, a moment made fun of in trailers, but his time on the limited screen was not enough to attract the usual crowds.
At the end of his race, Dancer Bring 132 million dollars around the world compared to a $ 90 million budget. Not terrible, but when comparisons with it with John Wick: Chapter 4Rolla from 447.3 million dollars, the difference is clear.
CEO of Lionsgate Jon Feltheimer He turned to the earnings of the company, saying that “adopt a series of important steps to return to solid growth in the tax year 2027”, indicating a list of incoming successes and an enlarged television range.
Which includes The Hunger Games: Sunrise on the collectionbased on the latest prequel novel and a sequel in two parts of The Passion of Christ.
Where this leaves the John Wick Franchising? It is still in the air. There was talk of a Dancer Sequel, but his warm box office can slow down those plans. However, Lionsgate is not yet moving away from the world of wick.
Two other spins -offs are already under development, a series of prequels and a secondary story focused on Donnie YenCharacter who brandishes the sword, Caine. John Wick: Chapter 5 it is also in the processing, although director Chad Stahelski He recently admitted that he has still understood how to follow the climatic events of Chapter 4.
THE Dancer Stulmble may not be a fatal blow, but remember that even in Wickverse, press the trigger on a spin -off does not guarantee a clean blow.
