'Argylle' Flops at Box Office Despite Leading Weekend

Apple's $200 million spy thriller opens to poor reviews and low earnings, raising concerns about future production investments.

'Argylle,' Apple's $200 million spy thriller, flops at the box office with an $18 million opening weekend.
Despite leading the weekend box office, 'Argylle' received poor reviews and a C+ CinemaScore from audiences.
Apple's previous big-budget releases, 'Killers of the Flower Moon' and 'Napoleon,' were more successful but not profitable.
The film's failure raises questions about Apple's future production investments and the overall health of the theatrical market.
'The Chosen Season 4' and 'The Beekeeper' follow 'Argylle' in weekend box office earnings, highlighting a quiet period for cinemas.
