Sydney Sweeney<\/strong><\/a>\u2019s highly anticipated boxing biopic \u201cChristy\u201d didn\u2019t exactly come out swinging.<\/p>\n The film, in which the \u201cEuphoria\u201d star portrays Hall of Fame boxer Christy Martin, stumbled in its opening weekend, earning just a little one $1 million across more than 2,000 theaters.<\/p>\n Despite strong performances and an inspiring real-life story, \u201cChristy\u201d struggled to find its audience, leaving many surprised that Sweeney\u2019s latest project failed to deliver a knockout at the Box Office<\/strong><\/a>.<\/p>\n Sweeney\u2019s \u201cChristy\u201d opened in 2,011 theaters but managed only $1.3 million, averaging $649 per venue, according to The Wrap<\/em><\/a>.<\/p>\n The disappointing start placed it among the top 12 worst openings for films shown on more than 2,000 screens.<\/p>\n The film currently holds a 67% rating on Rotten Tomatoes, but the poor turnout has raised questions about why audiences didn\u2019t show up for the biopic.<\/p>\n Three of the few movies ranking below \u201cChristy\u201d were released during the early months of the COVID-19 pandemic, a time when theaters were still struggling to recover.<\/p>\n That comparison makes its low debut especially striking, given that Sweeney is one of Hollywood\u2019s most talked-about young stars.<\/p>\n The sports drama also marked the first U.S. release handled directly by Black Bear Pictures, a studio best known for acclaimed titles like \u201cThe Imitation Game\u201d and \u201cMudbound.\u201d<\/p>\nSydney Sweeney\u2019s \u2018Christy\u2019 Opens To A Weak Box Office Debut<\/h2>\n
