Show the math
Break-even
- Production budget (ReelMatrix estimate)
- $8.0M–$15.0M
- Marketing (estimated for a limited release)
- $1.6M–$7.5M
- Total cost
- $9.6M–$22.5M
- Studio's share of each ticket dollar
- 45¢
- Later: home, streaming and TV
- +20¢
- Break-even worldwide
- $14.8M–$34.6M
Total cost ÷ 65¢ per box office dollar. That's 1.8–2.3× the budget. The studio's share blends 50¢ domestic, 40¢ international and 25¢ in China, weighted by this film's mix: 50% from the US and Canada, typical for a specialty distributor.
Projection
It's a limited release still adding theaters, so the projection keeps its forecast domestic total ($4.0M–$12.0M) until its theater count stops growing. Then it follows the real weekend-to-weekend drops.
- Domestic finish
- ~$8.0M
Worldwide finish = domestic finish ÷ 50%, until real international numbers come in.
