Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny opened with much hype as the last film of the franchise starring Harrison Ford. The film was expected to make opening weekend collections of up to $85 million. However, Indiana Jones 5 is a disaster in the making. Here’s the Box Office report of Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny and a comparison to similar big franchise releases. Post its release on June 30, 2023, Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny collected only $82 million in five days. The new generation viewers or even families did not throng to the theaters to watch it even on the Fourth of July holiday. Considering Indian Jones and the Dial of Destiny was made at a budget of $295 million, it needs some good numbers to make a profit at the ticket window. The only good thing is the comparison with other disastrous Fourth of July films, where Indian Jones’ 2023 film stands better. Arnold Schwarzenegger’s comeback movie Terminator Genisys had made just $42.4 million in its first five days.Superman Returns also did not make money as expected around a July 4 release, collecting $76 million in five days. The reason for the failure of these epic franchises, including Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny now, could be because their earlier fanatic viewers are now older, and the youngsters don’t care for these series much. Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny is more competition coming in the next few weeks, with Mission: Impossible 7, Barbie, and Oppenheimer releasing in theaters.
