Stephen King took to Twitter to defend The Marvels, which now holds the record for Marvel's lowest opening weekend at the box office.
"I don’t go to MCU movies, don’t care for them, but I find this barely masked gloating over the low box office for The Marvels very unpleasant. Why gloat over failure?" King tweeted.
He then added, "Some of the rejection of The Marvels may be adolescent fanboy hate. You know, 'Yuck! GIRLS!'"
The film brought in $47 million at the US box office, falling behind The Incredible Hulk's $55.4 million opening and Ant-Man's $57.2 million opening (with figures not adjusted for inflation). The Hollywood Reporter poses that because of this, Marvel is now looking to only release one superhero film in 2024, which is Shawn Levy's Deadpool 3.
