Will it be a hit?
Summary SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT Sony's video game movie Gran Turismo likely carries a big budget that puts pressure on its box office performance. Directed by Neill Blomkamp, the 2023 video game movie tells the true story of Jann Mardenborough as he goes from a Gran Turismo racer to racing professionally. It features a great cast led by Archie Madekwe as Jann, David Harbour, Orlando Bloom, and Djimon Hounsou.
The box office prospects of Gran Turismo are directly tied to the movie's budget. 2023 has repeatedly reminded Hollywood that movies carrying massive budgets are not guaranteed to be a hit, even if they have great reviews in some cases. While several movies have put up respectable box office totals, budgets near or above $300M have caused some major blockbusters to be deemed flops.
Gran Turismo's Budget Is Estimated To Be $100M There is not an officially confirmed budget for Gran Turismo, but the movie is estimated to have cost about $100 million for Sony to make. This factors in everything from production to the salaries for Gran Turismo's cast. The $100M budget might sound high, but it is a believable figure for the racing movie.
Gran Turismo Needs To Make At Least $200M To Succeed At The Box Office If the estimated $100M budget for Gran Turismo is correct, then Sony likely needs the movie to make at least $200M at the box office to be deemed a success. It is generally said that movies need to make about two times their budgets to break even as a result of marketing budgets and splitting box office revenue with theaters. There are even cases where movies might need to make two and a half or three times their cost.
Whether Gran Turismo becomes a success remains to be seen. Box office opening weekend projections for the movie domestically are calling for a modest $17M-$22M performance . Sony has already released the movie internationally, while early fan access showings have also happened for two weekends without those sales being reported. If audiences enjoy the racing video game movie more than critics, Gran Turismo becoming a box office success after its $100M budget could still be possible.
