Fancyarcher Posted February 24, 2014 Share Posted February 24, 2014 (edited) If the first film is successful enough they might have to find another actor for the lead considering Denzel has made it clear in interviews that he doesn't do sequels.

Jonwo Posted June 12, 2015 Share Posted June 12, 2015 It was fairly successful for Sony so no surprise it's getting a sequel. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Denzel's actually doing a sequel? Script's gotta be good, considering he's made it clear in interviews in the past that he's not a fan of doing sequels, and has turned down offers to do sequels to some of his films.

Maybe they will give it an overseas 3Dcrelease Total Lifetime Grosses Domestic: $101,530,738 52.8% + Foreign: $90,800,000 47.2% = Worldwide: $192,330,738 It was still quite successful it tripled is small (for a Denzel movie) 63m net budget with a 79 to 85 million world theatrical release cost. At 190 million WW (100dbo/90intl) Sony expected to do 31.6m in profit (13.4% ROI), their partners 9.6 million in profit and the above the line people 15.4 million in bonus (that a nice 55 million in gross profit shared around on a 63 million movie....). From the studio point of view that movie break even point was estimated at Domestic: $59,200,000 + Foreign: $59,200,000 = Worldwide: $118,400,00 The Return break point/good use of money estimated needed box office was at around 2.6x the budget Domestic: $82,000,000 + Foreign: $82,000,000 = Worldwide: $164,000,00 And it was greenlight with a 200m ww potential in mind. If they can get half the budget co-financed like on the first (Denzel Washington usually achieve to do that, he is predictable like a good clock like almost no one ever was) on a 75m or less net production, it is really not a big risk.
