Actor Sydney Sweeney’s horrid run at the box office has continued with her newest release, Christy. A biopic of boxer Christy Martin, the film opened to lukewarm reviews and horrible returns at the box office in its opening week. If there was any chance of a recovery, it has been snuffed out in its second weekend. Christy saw the worst-ever fall for a film in its second week, and was completely wiped out overseas.

Christy box office collection

According to Box Office Mojo, Christy had a domestic collection of $1.3 million in its opening weekend, one of the worst ever for a wide release in Hollywood history. If this wasn’t bad enough, the film saw a 92% fall in collections over the second weekend, bringing in only $108K over its second weekend. This is the worst opening weekend collection for a film in Hollywood history, surpassing any other wide release. As of November 20, Christy’s total domestic box office collection stands at a dismal $1.9 million.

Sydney Sweeney film draws blank overseas

The film has fared even worse in the international markets outside North America. Christy opened to just $14K overseas in its opening weekend and was then taken off theatres worldwide after Monday. In its second weekend, it has added $0 to its overseas total. The film’s worldwide gross remains under $2 million. With daily earnings now below $ 20,000, the film is almost certain to end its lifetime run with a worldwide total under $2 million, a disastrous figure for a film made for over $15 million.
