Zac Efron’s “We Are Your Friends” Worst Opening Weekend

He’s been promoting his new flick nonstop for weeks, but unfortunately Zac Efron's best efforts failed to inspire fans to see “We Are Your Friends” this weekend. According to industry numbers, the $1.8 million opening run is the worst total of any Hollywood studio film that has played in 2,000+ theaters (WAYF actually opened in 2,333 locations). And given that Warner Bros paid $6 million for production and another $2 million for distribution, there’s a good chance “Friends” will end up a tax write-off.

Warner VP of Domestic Distribution Jeff Goldstein told press, "This was a passion project for Zac Efron, and we believe in him. Yes, the result was disappointing, but this was a small film."
