'The Fall Guy' Box Office Performance: India and Worldwide
Directed by David Leitch and starring Ryan Gosling and Emily Blunt, 'The Fall Guy' opened in India with a modest Rs. 3 crores in its first weekend. The film's slow start saw a surge in revenue on Saturday and Sunday. Despite its low initial numbers, the trajectory promises potential growth.
Globally, 'The Fall Guy' has amassed an impressive USD 65 million, with approximately USD 28 million generated from North America alone. Before its domestic release in North America, the film had a successful international launch, grossing approximately USD 8 million, resulting in total earnings of USD 57-58 million from May 2nd to 5th, 2024.
Financial Concerns and Non-Theatrical Revenue
However, despite these figures, 'The Fall Guy' faces challenges due to its substantial budget of USD 130 million, excluding additional print and advertising costs. The estimated box office requirement for the film to break even is around USD 275-300 million. Given the current trajectory, 'The Fall Guy' may struggle to cross USD 200 million, leaving it vulnerable to fierce competition from upcoming releases. Like many post-pandemic films, 'The Fall Guy' will likely rely heavily on streaming and other non-theatrical revenue streams to achieve profitability.
