It won’t be released in China sadly. However the movie is coming to Japan, Taiwan, Malaysia, Singapore, Philippines, and other Asian countries next month. Australia and New Zealand on New Year’s Eve.

On 12/12/2021 at 8:00 PM, hauntlikeliberace said: Not yet! Production budget does not include marketing budget, so the movie has to earn at least 100-140 million to breakeven. But this is COVID era, so it’s really bound to not be as profitable, but it’s one of the few movies this pandemic where the financial loss is not that great. Overall a great number imho considering it’s only been out for less than a month. A movie’s theatrical window (exclusive theatre-only period) is about 45 days before it’s available for streaming, so it still has time to earn more money. Not to mention it’s not yet playing in large markets like Japan and Italy, as well as emerging markets like my country (the Philippines). Does grossing include the money movie theaters make from tickets in total or just the portion payed as royalties to the movie making company? Cuz if its just general revenue in total... u gotta deduct what individual theaters make for themselves, taxes etc. The real breakeven would be many millions more if that were the case Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It includes the tickets. but the movie hasn’t debuted in Asia/Australia/NZ yet, so it’s not that hard to surpass the budget and make profits. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Micmaky 697 Posted December 14, 2021 Share Posted December 14, 2021 I also think that 75 million figure is inflated. The movie was shot within a few weeks in a few real life locations with no built sets for additional costs. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Add that to the streaming deal and the DVD sales, it will be making a significant profit in the end. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Im not doubting it will make a profit I was responding to the suggestion it already has or is about to Since movie theaters keep a significant portion of ticket sales revenue and im sure theres taxes to be payed... if the grossing truly includes all movie revenue (not just the portion of revenue that goes to movie making company directly) then the total grossings have to be WAY higher than the budget itself Thats what i was getting at. Maybe double even If the total cost was $90M im pretty sure $120M would not yield enough royalties to the makers for them to break even yet, it probably has to be more than that Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
