Gemini Man came out earlier this month, and unfortunately for the people the behind the film, it’s currently suffering a huge loss of at least $75 million. This is unfortunate because along with the A-list star that Will Smith is, and the acclaimed director that Ang Lee is, you’d expect the movie to have done better in the box office. Taking a couple different things into consideration, the movie had some tough competition to go along with it. For one, the blockbuster Joker was running the box office, and Maleficent: Mistress of Evil being a proper contender to Ang Lee’s film.
The reported production budget of the movie was $138 million, with its worldwide total being $118.7 million. Domestically speaking, the movie is only actually set at $20.5 million. The Chinese release of Gemini Man had hope behind it to save it, but the film lost out to Maleficent in China – resulting in an upset. This doesn’t mean all is lost for Will Smith in recent times of course, being that the Bad Boys franchise relaunch in 2020 is already hyped for a huge release.
