Analysts have improved the forecast for the collection of Star Wars 7
The explosive growth in earnings of big-budget blockbusters at the international box office has forced many analysts to revise their forecasts for the box office of "Star Wars: Episode 7 - The Force Awakens" upwards. According to Deadline, a leading expert at investment giant Morgan Stanley Benjamin Swinburne believes the movie will earn at least $ 1.95 billion, making it one of the three highest grossing movie projects in the history of cinema. In his opinion, American viewers will provide the movie with about $ 650 million, while outside of North America "Star Wars 7" can raise $ 1.3 billion. The analyst estimates the total expenses at $ 423 million, of which $ 200 million is the production budget of the picture, and the remaining amount is not the cost of producing licensed copies and advertising. Walt Disney is expected to raise approximately $ 200 million from the sale of licensed products such as toys, clothing and other Star Wars branded goods. About $ 350 million will come from the sale of copies of the movie for home viewing, about $ 100 million from the sale of video games, and more than 70 million will come from pay-TV screenings. As a reminder, the seventh episode will be released in December 2015. The Topic of Article: Analysts have improved the forecast for the collection of Star Wars 7. |
