The $110 million budget that’s been reported may even be inflated, as Deadline’s sources indicate that it may be actually under $100 million and with co-financing deals and millions in promotional partnerships, Sony’s risk is mitigated.
Despite being a special effects driven movie in an established franchise, MIB International wasn’t as costly as you might think.
Crossing the $100 million mark in its opening weekend would be a solid start that would go a long way towards putting the Sony film in the black.
