Box Office: 'Death on the Nile' Besting 'Marry Me' in Quiet Super Bowl Weekend Showdown

Cast member Jennifer Lopez attends a special screening of the film"Marry Me" at the Directors Guild of America in Los Angeles, California, U.S., February 8, 2022.

Disney and 20th Century Studios’ “Death on the Nile,” based on the famous Agatha Christie novel, took in $5.1 million on Friday, an underwhelming tally. That’s only half as much as the opening day gross of its predecessor “Murder on the Orient Express” , which eventually legged it out to a $102 million domestic gross.

Directed by Kenneth Branagh, the adaptation follows the mustachioed detective Hercule Poirot as he attempts to solve a murder on board a glamorous river cruise in Egypt. The film boasts a deep cast of stars that includes Gadot, Annette Bening, Russell Brand and Letitia Wright. Variety’s Owen Gleiberman had praise for the film, writing that it is “crisper and craftier than ‘Murder on the Orient Express’; it’s a moderately diverting dessert that carries you right along.

“Marry Me” stars Lopez as a pop star who decides to get married to a total stranger during one of her concerts. Together, the two must face Lopez’s toxic ex and see if their shotgun wedding can turn into true love. In his review of “Marry Me,” Gleiberman complimented the film’s self-awareness of its preposterous plot, writing: “The bar for rom-coms is not high, and this one, ludicrous as it often is, inches over the bar.
