Despite being positioned as a high-octane superhero film, Kraven the Hunter opened to a dismal $11 million, significantly underperforming against industry expectations and previous releases.
Further compounding the disappointment, Kraven achieved only a 15% rating on Rotten Tomatoes and a C from CinemaScore, indicating overwhelmingly poor critical reception.
Internationally, the film did not fare better, ranking behind a three-plus-hour Telugu-language film, which underscores the challenges faced by Sony's Spider-Man Universe.
This debut reinforces a troubling trend for superhero films, as audiences seem less inclined to support characters outside of the established flagship franchises like Deadpool and Wolverine.
