Ballerina opened much closer to "Johnon Vick: Chapter 2", which entered $ 30.4 million at the weekend before finishing running with $ 174.3 million globally. Unfortunately, with US $ 90 million (in front of marketing), Lyonsgate depends on this playing closer to "Won Vick: Chapter 3" (opening $ 56.8 million and $ 328.3 million worldwide).

The good news is that the members of the audience who appeared really liked the film, with "ballerina" earning A-ChinaMascular and an audience approval of 93% of the audience at Rotten tomatoes. The critic's result is less excellent, currently sitting at 75%, but it's still good and, as we have seen time and time, the word from the audience is what is most important. In normal circumstances, we can expect good legs in the coming weeks. Unfortunately, Flood of large editions including "How to train your dragon", "Materialists", "28 Years Later", "Elio", "F1" and "M3Gan 2.0" are all descending the pipeline.

The whole match will make this steep tough battle for the first theater spin-off "Johnon Wick" on Lyonsgate. To profit in cinemas, it is likely that it needs to get closer to $ 300 million worldwide by $ 200 million. At this speed, he will be lucky to break the latter.

Meanwhile, Lionsgate has several other spin-off "Johnon Wick" in the worksincluding one in downtown Kane by Donny Chen and Anime, which shows the impossible task of G -Din Wick, who once alluded to the films. There are also "Johnon Vick 5." The good news is that two of them are difficult. The bad news is that Reeves couldn't do it forever, and hope was to expand this universe outside a killer.

There seems to be restrictions on that idea, as this universe is built on a good name of a man. That doesn't mean to say that lionsgate can't do more spin-off, it's just that you'll have to be more careful with budgets and hope to build interest in these films, even if Reeves is not in them. In the early walking at least, this was at best disappointment and in the worst case the death mark for a larger franchise.

"Ballerina" is now playing in theaters.
