After being obliterated by critics, Tom Cruise’s star power couldn’t save The Mummy as the first instalment in the Dark Universe franchise plummeted in the US, taking just $32.2 million from 4,035 locations.
Despite the disappointing US turnout, the international market has saved The Mummy from being a complete disaster, particularly in China.
According to The Hollywood Reporter, the film opened to $52.2 million in the country over the weekend, marking a career high launch for Cruise.
The superhero flick holds an 8.5 on Weying, while recently released Pirates of the Caribbean: Salazar’s Revenge has 8.7.
