News culture Venom is stronger than anything, even Clint Eastwood! On his second weekend, the Marvel hero breaks out of the house again
The production environment in Hollywood is unforgiving and some works can fail miserably upon release. But sometimes the studios themselves don’t have confidence in their own film and sabotage its release…
Spider-Man without Spider-Man
With Venom: The Last DanceSony is preparing to complete the jewel of its superhero universe alongside the MCU. The film, which is eagerly awaited by fans and stars Tom Hardy in the role of Eddie Brock/Venom, is likely to be the conclusion of this trilogy, which was criticized by critics but highly appreciated by audiences. This will not be the end of the work Spider-Man However, from Sonyas the American studio prepares for release Kraven the Hunter in December during the series Spider black is in full production. In addition, a number of other projects are currently being examined or are already in a more or less advanced pre-production stage. For example, we can quote the series silk A few months ago it was abandoned by Amazon, leaving Sony with the task of finding a new distributor and having the time to review the copy.
On the other side of the cinematographic field Clint Eastwood’s latest film, Juror #2recently came into cinemas. After a juror discovered that he may be the perpetrator of the crime the defendant was accused of, the feature film gained widespread attention as Eastwood’s final film. In fact, the American actor and director is now 94 years old, an age no longer particularly suitable for enduring the difficulties of filming, especially since the filmmaker’s health was a cause for concern at times. Despite everything, the film was quite well received by critics and audiences, but proved to be much more complicated financially.
Less than a handful of dollars
In fact, the publication Variety Reports What Juror #2 is said to have raised $5 million internationallywith the peculiarity that Warner Bros. has decided not to announce its local box office (i.e. on American territory). A decision that appears to be due to the decision for a limited release in the United States. The film is available in less than 50 theaters across the countryand most likely motivated by the failure of Eastwood’s previous film, which barely managed to collect half of its budget during its theatrical run.
On his part Venom: The Last Dance continue your Son’s ascension, exceeded $300 million at the end of the second week of operations. A development that, given a budget of 120 million (still without a marketing budget), should largely make it possible to cover the costs. Some see the difference between the two films This underlines the new expectations of studios, for which popular blockbusters have a much better chance than classic dramaseven with a small budget of 35 million and supported by an acclaimed director and a star actor in the presence of Nicholas Hoult (Mad Max Fury Road, Superman). We just hope that Clint Eastwood can at least produce one successful film.
