Budget: $120 million [source]
Opening weekend gross: $4 million
Factoring in marketing costs and the theaters taking their cut of the profits, Megalopolis would need to make at least $300 million to break even. I think it’s safe to say that’s not happening.
It would have been THE worst opening for a $100 million movie ever, had it not been for Pluto Nash’s horriffic opening 22 years ago.
Even The New York Times is reporting near-empty screenings of Megalopolis!
Promotional campaign brought to you by the same team that worked on Concord.
No shit, had seen only one weird trailer for this movie before it came out.
And Dredd with Karl Urban (which is a shame, the movie didn’t get the attention it deserved).
