The film's production exceeding $270 million, managed only to gross around $42 million in its first weekend domestically, showcasing a staggering estimated loss of $228 million. Even with instated international revenues, the film was positioned to lose upwards of $184 million, challenging the narrative of success presented by its promoters.
