Perhaps the most famous box office failure of Marvel «Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantum of Solace» formally turned out to be in the black. But it did not earn much.
The film grossed only $476.07 million at the global box office, which is not much for a Thanos-level threat fighter. The film was also extremely poorly received by critics, who gave it a 46% on Rotten Tomatoes.
According to unofficial data, Disney returned $92.05 million less than it spent on the movie. But the Marvel Phase 5 movie still managed to earn some money. Thanks to the tax credit received for the filming process in the UK, «Quantum Mania» technically managed to earn «$88 236. It’s not a huge amount, but it allows us to talk about profit.
The movie also brought failure to the character of Kang, who was supposed to become the next MCU supervillain canceled along with actor Jonathan Majorswho was found guilty of assault and harassment. Because of this, «Avengers 5», which was previously called «Avengers: Kang’s Dynasty», have now become «Avengers: Doomsday», and «Avengers Dr. Doom will be played by Robert Downey Jr.
Against the backdrop of chronic failures, Marvel Disney has declared fatigue with the superhero genre and reduction in the number of movies. But huge success «Deadpool and Wolverine» and the return of the public favorite Downey Jrprobably, postponed it. Studio announced 9 new films and series next year.
