Mortal Engines, the Peter Jackson-produced fantasy epic, has bombed at the box office.
Reeve’s Mortal Engines book was originally published in 2001, with Jackson holding onto the rights for roughly a decade before moving ahead with the project in 2016.
The film suffered a disastrous US opening of $7.5m, with a worldwide total of $42.3m, against a budget exceeding $110m.
The film is now looking to lose Universal Pictures between $105m and $150m, according to Deadline.
