Call it IP failure. Worse than the movie’s likely loss of more than
$100 million for Paramount/Skydance/Fox-Disney is the damage
it does to the franchise (China’s Tencent also has a small stake).
It’s the fourth attempt to reboot the series.
The Harriet Tubman biopic scored one of the best openings for a
specialty drama in the history of Focus Features, even coming
in ahead of BlacKkKlansman ($10.8 million) from roughly the same
number of theaters (2,000).
The $60 million-budgeted R-rated supervillain pic has a very
real shot of joining the billion-dollar club after already becoming
the fourth-highest-grossing DC title of all time behind Aquaman,
The Dark Knight Rises and The Dark Knight.
With Masked Singer on a baseball-
induced break, NBC’s drama is again
the No. 1 entertainment program,
with growing live-plus-3 lifts and an
average 2.7 rating for the season.
Tyler Perry’s new combo — The Oval
and Sistas — scores an auspicious
debut for BET, with sampling on BET
Her and VH1 providing an additional
500,000 on premiere night alone.
The artist tops
the Hot 100 for
the first time, as
the song vaults
with 38.8 million
U.S. streams and
39,000 sold in
its first full week,
per Nielsen Music.
The album is
West’s record-
tying ninth
consecutive debut
at No. 1, matching
Eminem’s streak
for the longest in
the chart’s history.
