After a week which saw even more shocking details emerge about the behind the scenes issues which plagued Josh Trank's Fantastic Four reboot, it should come as no surprise to learn that its second weekend at the North American box office was as disastrous as the first. The movie suffered from a whopping 69% drop with a a haul of just $8 million. That gives Fantastic Four just $41 million after a week of release. In other words, Fox have a bona fide flop on their hands! As for new release The Man From U.N.C.L.E. (which is well worth checking out, FYI), that didn't fare too well against Straight Outta Compton. It brought in only $13.5 million compared to the NWA biopic's impressive $56 million. As for Ant-Man, it currently has a worldwide total of $347.068 million. It's yet to open in China and another of other key international locations however. What did you see this weekend?
