Box Office: The 2021 Summer Movie Season Is About Not Success But Survival
The delay of Marvel and Disney’s Black Widow from May 7 to July 9 kicked off a last-minute round of musical chairs. MGM slotted Guy Ritchie’s Jason Statham action thriller The Wrath of Man (about a cash truck security guard who turns out to have a special set of skills) for May 7, although we can only hope it can perform better (relatively speaking) than did Jackie Chan’s Chinese-language Vanguard subbing in for No Time to Die on November 20 of last year. Lionsgate bumped Chris Rock and Samuel L. Jackson’s Spiral: From the Book of Saw up a week to May 14 and loudly declared that it would the unofficial “only in theaters” seasonal kick-off flick.
After all, if it’s the opening for a summer movie season aimed at boosting a recovering theatrical industry amid the tail-end of a global pandemic, it must be Saw. Summer 2020, even before the pandemic, was always going to be a smaller-scale season compared to the 2019 season. F9 was going to be bigger than Hobbs & Shaw while Minions 2 was going to be bigger than Secret Life of Pets 2 while In the Heights, Wonder Woman 1984 and Tenet would give WB a triple-whammy presumably well above the likes of Godzilla: King of the Monsters and Detective Pikachu.
