DC's new film "Black Adam" is expected to lose $50 million to $100 million

According to foreign media Variety, DC's new film "Black Adam" is expected to lose $50 million to $100 million. However, some sources within Warner insist that the film will eventually pay for itself, leaving the question of whether "Black Adam" will lose money.

The report stated that Black Adam has grossed $387 million worldwide in the seven weeks since its global release. The film cost $195 million to produce, plus $80-100 million in publicity, and needs to earn about $600 million in box office revenue to break even. Today, box office experts believe that the film's global box office will not exceed $400 million. Industry sources and sources from Warner's competitors with similar experience believe that, at present, the film will lose $50-100 million in this theatrical release.

However, some Warner insiders expressed a different point of view, saying that the film distribution situation has changed during the epidemic, and coupled with the revenue that the film can obtain from home entertainment (HBO Max), if "Black Adam" can get 400 million box office, it will break even. It is expected that the film will eventually pay back and make a profit.
