BBCAfter Furiosa flops, Hollywood could be facing a biblically disastrous summer Warner Bros May is usually when people flock to cinemas for blockbuster season – but this year, that has got off to a terrible start. The summer is only just getting started, but there are mutterings in the film business that it's already a wash-out – the kind of waterlogged season in which every picnic is ruined by a downpour. Series featuring characters from Star Wars, The Lord of the Rings and the Marvel Cinematic Universe have all provided the kind of splashy entertainment which was once the preserve of cinemas, as have Red Notice, The Gray Man, Heart Of Stone, and the various other globe-trotting action movies starring Dwayne Johnson, Gal Gadot and the Ryans. Warner Bros The Fall Guy got the summer season off to an ominously bad start a few weeks ago Meanwhile, most of Hollywood's biggest blockbuster franchises have run their courses.
