Summary
-
Madame Web
trails behind
Morbius
in box office earnings, with a global total of $77.4 million after two weekends. - The movie has not reached its estimated break-even point of $200 million.

Morbius
earned more in its global opening weekend with $83.9 million.
Madame Web is still trailing behind the opening weekend of Morbius. The movie, which stars Dakota Johnson as the titular clairvoyant paramedic, is the fourth installment in Sony’s Spider-Man Universe, which includes Venom, Venom: Let There Be Carnage, Morbius, and the upcoming movies Kraven the Hunter and Venom 3. Madame Web opened midweek on Valentine’s Day with a 6-day President’s Day holiday weekend total of $26 million, which was still the lowest opening of the entire franchise behind the $39 million domestic debut of Morbius, which flopped in 2022, was re-released two months later after going viral, and flopped again.
Per Collider, the Madame Web box office has reached $77.4 million worldwide by the end of its second weekend in theaters. That is not nearly enough for the movie to earn a profit, as the break-even point for the project, which has a reported budget between $80 and $100 million, is estimated to be around $200 million. On top of that, it still hasn’t made as much money as Morbius‘ global opening weekend, which earned $83.9 million.
