Yup.

Could even hit a billion.

On a 55 million budget.

Just let that sink in for a moment...

Shame WB won’t get a full share of the profits as this movie was co financed

Anyone know if Joaquin Phoenix and Todd Phillip's will get any percentage of that coin?

What a timely rejoinder to QFU's incessant WB/DC box-office promotion. Sadly though he'll be carrying this torch forever. He has become totally enamored on this single data point for WB/DC in a quixotic search for the Ultimate hammer to attack Disney/Marvel.

I wonder what the split was? It would be hilarious if the percentage was 67%!

Perhaps its not hot hot hot after all, the ROI for WB wont match Marvels big hitters , alas QFU will probably ignore these facts and continue to troll

By percentage, (which is what ROI is) WB or Universal might have an edge; but by total Net Profit which is what really counts on the bottom-line, it is NOT a competition. Any investor will take 33% of $2 Billion over 56% of $200 Million any day of the fiscal year and laugh at his ROI percent all the way to the bank.

The best thing about this will be all the edgy projects that will now go forward.
