This is why marketing executives in March were panicking despite there already being a trailer out. I’ll try to found the actual studies.
Studios with this mindset put such movies in months when there is not such competition(Venom). August/September and January are dumping grounds. But they chose this June of all places.
Its very weird. But based on reports that doesn’t seem to be much of the case. People were simply getting laid off because of the merger.
