Bloodshot won't spoil the universe
"Bloodshot" became one of the victims of the coronavirus. Studio Sony decided not to postpone the premiere of the action blockbuster, but the situation in the North American box office at that time was already depressing. Now most of the US cinemas are closed, which means that it is not possible to recoup the $ 42 million budget at the box office, and to minimize the damage, Sony will release the film on digital platforms just two weeks after the release on large screens.It may be possible for the major to minimize the losses, although financial losses cannot be avoided, but in addition, the failure of "Bloodshot" should have put an end to the planned universe based on the Valiant comics. However, insiders argue that not everything is so sad. According to rumors, Paramount studio plans to buy the rights to the character from Sony. They will write the story of a soldier from scratch, and the blockbuster starring Vin Diesel will remain separate from the future franchise. Paramount has already bought out the rights to some of Valiant's heroes. Last fall, for example, a project called "Harbinger", which has been in development for several years, moved under the studio's wing. As for Bloodshot, Diesel does not mind playing him in other projects, but the leadership of the major plans to find a younger actor for this role, and thus completely erase the Sony blockbuster from the history of the Valiant cinematic universe.  The good news is that the failure of Bloodshot, caused not so much by the quality of the film itself as by the coronavirus pandemic and quarantine measures, will not stop Paramount studio, and the super soldier will still show the audience all his might.
