Meanwhile, fellow new release 'Strays' will debut in fourth place this weekend.
The Big Picture After a full month, the domestic box office anointed a new number one film. Warner Bros.’ Blue Beetle topped the chart on its first day of release, sending the studio’s own blockbuster Barbie to second place for the first time in its record-breaking month-long run. Blue Beetle grossed $10 million on opening day, which includes the $3.3 million that it made in Thursday previews.
The movie’s opening is in the same range as Birds of Prey some years ago. That film is generally considered to have underperformed at the box office, finishing with less than $100 million domestically and just around $200 million worldwide. And while Barbie surely softened the blow, WB is reeling from three back-to-back superhero films that underperformed — Black Adam, Shazam! Fury of the Gods and The Flash.
