Early projections for I Feel Pretty have the new Amy Schumer movie making around $13 million-$15 million during its opening weekend.
While this is still a fair enough showing, it’s far below the opening hauls for both Trainwreck and last summer’s Goldie Hawn movie Snatched.
While the verdict is still out regarding I Feel Pretty’s critical performance, the decline in bankability for Schumer is no doubt concerning those involved.
Trainwreck made a ton of money after word of mouth helped it become a significant pop culture moment, taking $30.1 million in its opening weekend before cleaning up during its run.
