Harmony Korine's “The Beach Bum,” starring McConaughey, opened with $1.8 million in March, which was the worst opening for a wide release on over 1,000 screens at the time, and one of the worst openings of the actor's career. STX released two bombs in two weekends: the animated “UglyDolls” and “Poms,” which had the worst opening for a movie in over 2,700 theaters over the weekend.“Hellboy” failed to spark excitement last month due to a poor release date, awful reviews, and other major factors. It's made just $21 million and was made for $50 million. The box office will need help from Disney blockbusters such as June's “The Lion King” and December's “Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker” if it wants to compete with last year's record-breaking gross.Below are 10 box-office flops this year, in order of release date:
