Box Office: Scarlett Johansson and Channing Tatum Rom-Com ‘Fly Me to the Moon’ Eyes $12 Million Liftoff


Scarlett Johansson and Channing Tatum hope that good reviews can propel the pricey Apple rom-com 'Fly Me to the Moon' at the box office.

Greg Berlanti (“Love, Simon”) directs “Fly Me to the Moon,” which follows Johansson as a marketing guru brought in to work on the Apollo 11 spaceflight alongside Tatum’s launch director. Neon will also offer up “ Longlegs,” a horror- thriller with the reliably creepy Nicolas Cage as a serial killer and Maika Monroe as the FBI agent on his trail. For theater owners, who gripe that the writers and actors strikes along with the pandemic left them with fewer movies to exhibit, having two wide releases geared at older audiences entering the fray alongside hit family films like “Inside Out 2” and “Despicable Me 4,” is a welcome change.
