Godzilla: King of the Monsters roared its way to a lackluster $49 million in its debut at the North American box office at 4,108 screens. King of the Monsters launched below the last installment in Warner Bros. and Legendary’s monster movie series: 2017’s Kong: Skull Island earned $61 million at its North American bow, while that pic trailed Godzilla‘s $93 million (unadjusted for inflation) in its 2014 debut, as well.
