200 million dollar budget


I can't believe they spent 200 million on this flick?

Why can’t you believe that? It’s a pretty standard tentpole budget.

Question is if it'll make a profit.

Well it’s not like they knew Covid was going to happen back when the film was green-lit. Honestly, I’m actually surprised it didn’t cost more than $200 million, but I suppose that’s due to there being almost zero big-name actors in it.

Why not?

Every other big budget movie has been moved after the summer. This is the only one that will be released before the summer. There will be no competition.
