Freeย Guy is the latest sci-fi comedy adventure from director Shawn Levy. After being pushed back due to COVID-19, the film was released to a surprising $28.4 million opening weekend. Unlike other films released this year, such asย The Suicide Squadย andย In the Heights, thatย were available on streaming sites like HBO Max at no additional fee,ย Free Guyย is playing exclusively in theaters for its first 45 days.

Industry analyst, Jeff Bock, believes that the 45-day theater release has helped with adding a few million dollars to box office revenues. However, Bock doesn’t think that is the sole reason for the massive turnout.

“Ryan Reynolds is a draw in the right vehicle,” Bock said. “It was a lighthearted summer movie that was made for general audiences.”

The film isย Disney’sย first live-action release in three years that isn’t a sequel or already connected to a franchise. Aย Free Guyย sequel could mean a new family-friendly franchise for Disney and 20th Century.

Levy has been candid with the challenges that he faced when trying to get the movie made. He expressed his concern that openly mocking corporations wouldn’t sit well with Disney in a recent interview.

“Disney allowed us to open our very first trailer for Free Guy with a joke about ‘the studio that brought you Lion King, Beauty and the Beast, Cinderella, comes…wait for it…a new movie!” Levy said. “At the time, that was a pretty audacious joke. We realized that Disney was willing to be in on the joke to avoid being the butt of the joke.”

Free Guy,ย starring Ryan Reynolds,ย is now playing in theaters.
