Assassin’s Creed Opens Poorly at Box Office
Assassin's Creed had an underwhelming debut at the domestic box office, earning just $15 million over the four-day holiday weekend.
As noted by Variety, the video game-inspired film, starring Michael Fassbender, earned $22.5 million during its first six days in theaters, placing fifth at the box office. As such, the movie still has a long way to go to recoup its $125 million production budget.
The studio expects the film to perform well in international markets. "This start exceeded our modeling," Fox domestic distribution chief Chris Aronson said. "We'll be the beneficiaries of a strong holiday play period."
