Despite scoring the lowest reviews of the trilogy, MagicMikesLastDance is projected to top this weekend's box office, having already grossed $4.1 million on Friday.
As the trilogy comes to a close, Magic Mike's Last Dance is expected to top the box office, despite scoring series-low reviews. The dramedy franchise was originally loosely based on producer/star Channing Tatum's real experiences as a young male stripper in Florida.
SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY Initially planned as an HBO Max release, Warner Bros. elected to shift the film to a theatrical exclusive release, a move that appears to have worked in its favor. As reported by Deadline, Magic Mike's Last Dance is expected to top its opening box office weekend, in spite of the fact it's received the lowest reviews of the series, only sitting at a 47 percent approval rating from critics on Rotten Tomatoes at the time of writing. The film earned just over $4.
While it may not come as a surprise for Magic Mike's Last Dance to be getting a strong start, it coming in at the top is sure to leave some wondering how it did so. The month of January marked a promising continuation of 2022's box office resurgence, with holdover Avatar: The Way of Water continuing to dominate from its December release, currently having grossed $2.181 billion worldwide.
The month of February, however, has been a quieter one thus far, with Avatar: The Way of Water memorably being dethroned by the football comedy 80 for Brady, which is projected to come in at No. 2 this weekend behind Magic Mike's Last Dance, and M. Night Shyamalan's Knock at the Cabin.
