13. ‘The Marvels’ (2023)

‘The Marvels’ earned $206,136,825 globally, making it the lowest-grossing film in the Multiverse Saga. This team-up of Carol Danvers, Monica Rambeau, and Kamala Khan faced challenges with a crowded superhero market and mixed audience reception, despite its vibrant action and humor.

The $375 million budget was a gamble that didn’t fully pay off, as the film struggled to connect with a wide audience. Still, its cosmic adventure and focus on female-led heroes added a fresh dynamic to the MCU.

12. ‘Black Widow’ (2021)

‘Black Widow’ earned $379,751,655 worldwide, a solid return for Natasha Romanoff’s solo outing. Released during the pandemic, the film balanced intense action with emotional depth, giving Scarlett Johansson’s character a proper send-off.

Its $200 million budget and simultaneous Disney+ release impacted its theatrical run, but strong international earnings of $196.1 million showed global love for the spy-thriller vibe.
