The Lord of the Rings: The War of the Rohirrim anime was a MASSIVE box office failure, making under $5 million opening weekend! The word on the street is the anime was made on fly just so New Line can keep the movie rights to do the Gollum movies nobody wants.
The Lord of the Rings anime was reportedly fast-tracked through production to maintain New Line Cinema’s control of feature film rights, rather than for potential box office success.
Lord of the Rings anime set a disappointing record for the franchise with a mere $4.6 million opening weekend on a $30 million budget, requiring at least $60 million to break even.
Sony is pushing back the third Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse movie from 2025 to 2026 or later due to Craven the Hunter’s poor performance.
Craven the Hunter bombed with an $11 million opening weekend from 3,200 theaters, marking the worst start for a Sony-produced Marvel film.
The Lord of the Rings franchise is currently in a difficult place, with the Amazon series and Gollum video game damaging the brand, while the anime’s 51% Rotten Tomatoes score and lowest domestic gross further hurt its reputation.
