Tron: Ares seems to be gaining control at the box office, earning better than Morbius on its first Tuesday in North America. The sci-fi film has surpassed a few notable movies at the domestic box office. It is now aiming to beat Bong Joon Ho’s Mickey 17 and Downton Abbey: Grand Finale at the North American box office.

Jared Leto’s film is also underperforming, and what holds for it in the future is still uncertain. However, as per the trend, it is likely to flop at the box office because of its hefty budget. Many believe that Leto’s days as a leading man are over due to the box office failures in the recent past few years. The previous film was also a moderate success, as Tron: Legacy collected over $400 million against a net production cost of $170 million. This too has an estimated budget of $180 million, higher than its predecessor. It might also indicate that this franchise should be discontinued.
