Disney's 'Wish' Fails to Impress at Box Office

The latest animated feature from Disney struggles amidst critical reviews and stiff competition, continuing a disappointing trend for the company in 2023.

• Disney's latest animated feature, 'Wish', has underperformed at the box office, earning only around $20,000,000 domestically and under $50,000,000 globally in its first few days.
• The SAG-AFTRA strike, which ended just two weeks before 'Wish' was released, may have impacted the film's promotion as the cast could not publicize the film during a significant portion of its promotional window.
• Critics have not been kind to 'Wish', with the film receiving a rotten score on Rotten Tomatoes and a 5.9 on IMDb.
• Disney's recent track record has not been inspiring, with several of its films underperforming at the box office in 2023.
• 'Wish' faced stiff competition at the box office, with films like 'Napoleon' and 'The Hunger Games: The Ballad of Songbirds & Snakes' also in theaters.
