Oh dear, one of the biggest Hollywood flops of all time opens even worse in the cinema than feared

40 years in development, a budget of $120 million, a feature film that was financed out of pocket. With Megalopolis, legendary director Francis Ford Coppola (The Godfather 1 – 3, Apocalypse Now) risks destroying his life’s work. The film would have to gross at least $240 million. But Megalopolis only opened at number 6 in US cinemas.

Is Megalopolis a flop in the cinema?

Shortly after the first weekend in cinemas, it was already clear that Megalopolis started even worse than originally expected. The sci-fi epic, which was somewhat reminiscent of Christopher Nolan’s Inception after the first trailer, only grossed $4 million instead of the predicted $5 million. I’m sorry, what?

Normally it’s not worth mentioning whether a Hollywood blockbuster grosses a million more or less on its opening weekend. In the case of mega-flop Megalopolis, however, this means 20 percent less box office sales than already estimated. How is the new film doing? Francis Ford Coppola in German cinemas?

How successful is Megalopolis in Germany?

The School of Magical Animals 3 is currently at the top of the cinema charts in this country. If you take a closer look at the other top 5, you will find films like the surprisingly incredibly successful Beetlejuice or the Minions blockbuster Despicable Me 4, but you won’t find Megalopolis.

Scene from Megalopolis

Seriously? The biggest mega-flop of the year in the cinema is still supposed to be better than Star Wars

Very unexpected, but this cinema flop is supposed to be better than the new Star Wars trilogy.

The new film with Star Wars star Adam Driver (“Kylo Ren”), who raves about the filming despite the mega-flop, only attracted around 20,000 film fans and the cinemas and failed miserably die Top 5. Such a resounding failure suggests that Megalopolis will be available digitally very soon.

When can you stream the flop in the cinema at home? A current launch as PVOD (Premium Video on Demand) or on Blu-ray has not yet been determined. One assumes that Megalopolis in early/mid November will be available for streaming. Will you still give the film another chance in the cinema or will you wait for it to happen? Megalopolis can stream? Feel free to write it to us in the comments.
