Warcraft film set to lose studio $30 million despite China success

Unfortunately, this won’t be enough to stop the film making a loss; with a budget of $160 million plus substantial amounts of advertising, Warcraft will likely lose $30 – $40 million, according to IGN.

Despite being a relative flop at the domestic box-office, the film found an audience in China, making over half of its $430 million in the country.

Upon its release, Duncan Jones’s Warcraft was met with a fairly negative response, including a two-star review from this very publication.
