Dwayne Johnson’s live-action film Moana was released in theatres on July 10. Despite underwhelming box-office numbers, the film continues to run on over 4,000 screens across North America. In its third week, the film is holding steady at the box office but has started trailing Minions & Monsters, which was released a week before Moana.
Moana Falls Behind Minions & Monsters
The Dwayne Johnson starrer faced competition just a week after its release from The Odyssey. It was natural that the Christopher Nolan epic would overtake every other movie in the domestic market. But now, the live-action film is falling behind Minions & Monsters in daily collections as well. Minions & Monsters was released in theatres on July 1, 10 days before the live-action film.
On its third Wednesday, Moana earned $1.71 million with a screen count of 4,015. This is a 31.8% drop from its second Wednesday collection. It has also lost 185 screens since its third Friday. On the contrary, Minions & Monsters earned $1.79 million on its fifth Wednesday, becoming the second-ranked film at the North American box office, trailing The Odyssey.
Currently, the remake stands at a cumulative total of $108.3 million.
