Furiosa sees worst Memorial Day opening in 30 years
Furiosa, the latest installment in the Mad Max series, fell short of expectations during its opening weekend in the US. Despite projections of a $40 million opening, the movie only managed to bring in $32 million over the long Memorial Day weekend. This disappointing performance marks the lowest box office figures for the holiday weekend in 30 years, since Casper debuted to $22. 5 million in 1995. Furiosa narrowly beat its closest competitor, The Garfield Movie, which made $31. 1 million. The figures for the 2024 weekend were significantly down from 2023, when Disney's The Little Mermaid brought in $118 million. The movie, a prequel to the Mad Max series, stars Anya Taylor-Joy and Chris Hemsworth and tells the origin story of Imperator Furiosa, played by Charlize Theron in 2015’s Mad Max: Fury Road. The dystopian action films, created by George Miller, are set in the barren Australian outback, exploring the breakdown of society after an apocalypse. The film, which cost $168 million to produce, was projected to make around $40 million over the four-day weekend in the US.
