Joker Folie À Deux: the latest figures are catastrophic, DC has messed up

After breaking a disastrous record when it was released in theaters, Joker Folie à Deux continues its slow and painful descent into Hell… The sequel to the 2019 film, which had garnered praise from critics and audiences, is being criticized by the very people who had praised the previous installment. As for the weekend that has just passed, he confirms that Warner Bros. has a real industrial accident on its hands.

Joker Folie à Deux: the latest figures are catastrophic, DC has failed

A historic collapse at the box office

It's not time to celebrate at the Warner Bros. offices. Joker: Folie à Deuxcollapsed at the box office during its second weekend of operation. According to our colleagues at Deadline, the musical comedy carried by Joaquin Phoenix and Lady Gaga “shows a free fall of -82% with approximately 6.7 to 7 million dollars according to industry estimates“. During its opening weekend in the United States, it had already not brought in much: 37.6 million dollars. To give you an idea, in general, a successful film hardly loses more than 60% from one weekend to the next. Anything that exceeds this percentage drop is considered by the industry as bad, so let me tell you that the score recorded by this Joker 2 is extremely disappointing!

Joker Madness at Two: The Latest Figures Are Disastrous, DC Has Failed

While the first film grossed $96.2 million during its opening weekend in 2019, and continued to benefit from positive word-of-mouth, this sequel is suffering from the opposite effect. The disastrous box office of Madness at Two Two is the “worst result for a DC movie in the brand's big-screen history”, after The Flash (73% drop) and The Suicide Squad (72% drop). A very expensive flop, since Warner Bros. reportedly spent around $200 million on the film, which stars Joaquin Phoenix and Lady Gaga as Arthur Fleck and Harley Quinn. No wonder the singer is struggling because of the bad reviews…
