On the surface, a precise $32,106,112 opening weekend forRed One’s box office is mediocre.
That is concerning for a film when talking about its path to finding success strictly through the box office.
Typically, a movie must make at least double its budget at the box office to break even.
ButRed One’s opening weekend box office is comparable to most of his other original or new franchise starters.
SinceRed Oneis an original idea with franchise aspirations, the film’s opening weekend is solid for Johnson.
The biggest lesson that should be learned is the increasing budgets his projects carry.
That’s intriguing considering what Dwayne Johnson has in terms of upcoming movies.
There’s clearly no hesitancy in the Hollywood world to get into business with Johnson.
That should continue with major theatrical and streaming releases, butwhether aRed Onesequel happens remains to be seen.

Its box office will be an essential factor, but not the only one.
Amazon MGM has more leeway in this scenario because of the film’s inevitable release on Prime Video.
That’s notable forRed One, which should come to Prime Video sometime in 2025based on projections.
