Will Smith’s holiday drama “Collateral Beauty” came in at an abysmal $7 million this weekend, as it dared to debut against the juggernaut that is “Rogue One: A Star Wars Story.”

Counting box office disappointments starring Smith, including the 2013 sci-fi flick “After Earth” and last year’s crime dramedy “Focus,” “Beauty” is another unattractive result in the actor’s resume that has grown worryingly heavy with more misses than hits.

Something of a modernized “It’s a Wonderful Life,” “Collateral Beauty” was made for $36 million, not counting marketing costs. The New Line release was co-financed byย Village Roadshow andย also opened to $4.6
