The results from the all-important Thanksgiving Box Office sales are in.
This year’s Thanksgiving movies proved to be a feast and famine for Walt Disney.
While “Black Panther: Wakanda Forever” added $64 million to its domestic tally during the five-day time frame, Disney’s latest animated feature “Strange World” failed to lure in moviegoers, generating just $18.6 million.
That is the worst three-day opening for a Disney animated feature since 2000′s “The Emperor’s New Groove.”
It comes as CEO Bob Iger returns to the helm of the company, promising to restructure Disney in a way that puts creativity at the forefront.
Thanksgiving week is an important time for studios at the box office, usually bringing in around $250 million in ticket sales each year.
