‘Dumbo’ Tops Box Office With Disappointing Results

Dumbo

Disney’sDumbo had trouble gaining altitude at the North American box office, where it opened to a disappointing $45 million from 4,259 theaters.

Dumbo still easily won the weekend ahead of holdover Us, but it’s the lowest start among Disney’s high-profile, live-action updates, prompting some box office analysts to question whether there is a built-in fanbase for the nearly 80-year-old property.
