Tron Franchise in Limbo After Disappointing Box Office Opening
Disney's Tron: Ares has opened to a disappointing box office, earning $33.5 million domestically and $60 million globally, putting the franchise in a state of uncertainty.
The Tron series, which spans 43 years, has struggled to achieve significant success, despite being too successful to be considered a failure or a cult classic. This is evident in the comparison to Tron: Legacy, which grossed $400 million worldwide before inflation, nearly 15 years ago.
Like every other Hollywood studio, Disney has had its fair share of failed attempts at launching franchises (“John Carter,” anyone?).
The franchise's limbo status raises questions about why Disney continues to revive it, despite its inability to reach the same heights as other successful Disney IPs.
Author's summary: Tron franchise faces uncertainty after poor box office opening.
