Eternals might be “rotten” according to Rotten Tomatoes, but it’s still on track for a pretty fresh box office debut.
This is per Deadline, which reports that the global predictions for the latest Marvel blockbuster are trending quite nicely (albeit, within the grading-on-a-curve standards of the COVID-19 box office reality). The Chloé Zhao-directed film is currently on track for $150 million opening planet-wide, including a strong expected showing in Korea.
