USA box office on 4th weekend of September (2017-2023)

 
USA box office on Friday of the 3rd weekend of September 2023 is  down 21% compared to last year when "Don't Worry Darlng" was the top-grossing movie.  

It's also down 56% compared to the 2017 peak when "Kingman: the Golden Circle" was the top-grossing movie.

“The Expendables 4,” an action-thriller starring Sylvester Stallone and Jason Statham, misfired in its box office debut, tumbling to a franchise-low $8.3 million. 
It landed in ever-so-slightly second place behind “The Nun II,” which collected $8.4 million in its third weekend. It’s possible the order could flip by the time the final tally is revealed on Monday. Even so, this weekend’s collective ticket sales resulted in the lowest-grossing box office frame of the year as not a single film managed to clear $10 million.

Audiences don’t seem to intend to attend the latest “Expendables.” The fourth entry in the ensemble action franchise is notching a series-low opening day from 3,518 theaters with $3.2 million, a figure that includes a meagre $750,000 in Thursday previews. 
“Expend4bles” is projecting a debut that’ll fall well short of the $15 million to $17 million range that had been expected heading into the weekend, and also behind the $15.8 million sum that “The Expendables 3” put up nine years ago. The franchise has been sliding since its first entry landed a $34.8 million opening in 2010, followed by the 2012 sequel netting $28.5 million. Millennium Media financed the film, while Lionsgate picked up distribution for the U.S. and U.K. and is looking to squeeze a profit with the flip into digital and VOD, even after a domestic debut this paltry.
