13 Upcoming Movies Destined To Be Box Office Bombs

Release Date: April 5, 2019

Budget: $20 million

Was anyone really asking for another adaptation of Stephen King's supernatural horror novel? Though the cast is talented (Jason Clarke, Amy Seimetz, and John Lithgow), they don't have much box office power between them, and it'll be tough to market the movie to casual audiences without it seeming, well, a bit silly.

The low budget should prevent it from being a catastrophic disaster, but it's also easy to see it failing to appeal to either King hardcores or general horror fans.

Plus, Shazam! releases the same day, and though the films cater to very different demographics, most will see Shazam! if pressed to pick one of them.

Estimated Box Office: $35 million
