Was the Eternals a flop?

The Eternals was a superhero film from Marvel Studios that was released in 2020. It was directed by Chloé Zhao and starred Angelina Jolie, Richard Madden, Kumail Nanjiani, Salma Hayek, and others.

The film was generally well-received by critics, who praised its visuals and performances, particularly those of Jolie, Madden, and Nanjiani. However, it was not a box office success. The film was released during the COVID-19 pandemic, which negatively impacted its theatrical run. Additionally, the film received a limited theatrical release due to Disney's focus on their streaming service Disney+. This limited its potential audience, which further hurt box office performance.

Overall, while the Eternals was generally well-received critically, it was not a box office success due to the limited theatrical release and the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on the film industry.
