Several studios took their last best shots at the box office before Avengers: Endgame kicks off the summer season a week early at the end of the month, but most ended up shooting blanks. With four new wide releases this weekend, Shazam! hung on to the top spot, ending the weekend with $25 million. That gives the film $95 million after 10 days, but the film had already doubled its production budget after worldwide grosses of over $200 million heading into Saturday. It’s not going to be a Wonder Woman or Captain Marvel sized hit, but it doesn’t have to be. It’s likely to more than triple its budget before it’s all said and done, so consider this a success for Warner Brothers.
