Yahoo News Kraven the Hunter sets unwanted record with terrible box-office debut
Kraven the Hunter has set an unwanted record with its terrible box-office debut.
The Spider-Man villain movie landed in third place at the US box office, earning just $11 million from 3,211 cinemas, according to Variety.
The spin-off, starring Aaron Taylor Johnson, is the final instalment of Sony's Spider-Man Universe, which includes the Venom trilogy, Morbius and Madame Web. It failed to surpass Madame Web's $15.3m debut, securing the record for the lowest US box office opening of the Sony Marvel movies.

Kraven the Hunter also received a poor reception from critics, scoring a mere 15% approval rating on Rotten Tomatoes from its first 101 reviews.

In its two-star review, Digital Spy said: "Perhaps the biggest miss for Kraven the Hunter is that comic-book fans of the character won't be satisfied either. There's nothing villainous about this iteration and he's barely an anti-hero, unless the only qualification is to kill people. Without Spider-Man, he's almost without a purpose, too."
Elsewhere, Disney's Moana 2 has held on to its place at the top of the US box office for its third consecutive weekend.

The adventure sequel has raked in another $26.6 million from 4,000 cinemas, adding up to $717 million globally so far. It has already become 2024's fifth highest grossing movie in the US and the fourth biggest global release.
Musical adaptation Wicked has remained in second place with $22.5 million from 3,689 venues in its fourth weekend of release.

The movie has generated $359 million across the US and more than $524 million globally to date. It's the highest grossing Broadway adaptation in US box office history.
Kraven the Hunter is out now in cinemas.
