This musical about the Nativity Story is slowing down at the box office after four weekends in release.
Affirm Films' Journey to Bethlehem brought in $200,000 in ticket revenue from Friday through Sunday, putting it in 21st place overall, according to The Numbers website. That pushes the faith-based picture's total ticket revenue to $6.1 million after 24 days in theaters.
The movie stars Fiona Palomo and Milo Manheim as Mary and Joseph and generally follows the Biblical narrative of the Nativity. Antonio Banderas and Christian music artists Joel Smallbone - of the duo For King + Country - and Lecrae round out a strong supporting cast.
The aforementioned weekend revenue is down almost 70% from the same period a week earlier and mirrors a corresponding drop over that time frame in the number of theaters playing the film. That figure currently stands at just 466 venues, meaning Journey to Bethlehem may well end its theatrical run before we get to Christmas.
