Morbius hit theaters and, according to the data, made money 5.7 million dollars on the preview evening. These data are positive and the consequent ones earnings forecasts now point to a higher figure, for the first weekend, than Sony’s initial forecasts.
The $ 5.7 million earned from the evening of preview of Morbius they are slightly below what Shazam earned (5.9) in 2019. Shazam eventually earned $ 53.5 million on opening weekend. Sony expects 33 million in the first weekend, but according to forecasts based on the preview it could reach 40-50 million. Venom, another Marvel-Sony movie, made $ 10 million on preview night and hit $ 80 million on the first weekend.
Morbius reviews, as we have indicated, are terrible, with a very low average on both Rotten Tomatoes and Metacritic. The votes of the spectators on Metacritic, however, are clearly higher, with a 7.7 (green).
This is a similar situation to that of Venom, which received low marks from the trade press but got high marks from viewers. We will have to see if even in this case the final earnings will be high and if this will also lead to sequels and new films dedicated to the character.
