Walt Disney to lose 140 million to Tomorrowland
A failure at the box office of the fantasy movie Tomorrowland could cost Walt Disney $ 120 million to $ 140 million. According to The Hollywood Reporter, it is precisely such losses that threaten the company, which has invested $ 180 million in the production of the picture, and about $ 150 million in its promotion. This is the biggest defeat for Walt Disney since the release of The Lone Ranger, which left the company in losses of $ 190 million. "Earth of the Future" was the third large-budget movie project to fail at the box office in 2015. Previously, the same fate befell the paintings "The Ascent of Jupiter" and "The Seventh Son". Thus, the riskiness of such a large-scale investment in original movies that are not part of the franchise and do not have a fanbase was confirmed. Recall that the director of "Future Earth" was Brad Bird, who has extensive experience working with Walt Disney as a director of the famous cartoons of the Pixar subsidiary studio. The movie, based on the Disneyland theme section, stars Brittany Robertson, Katherine Hahn, George Clooney, Judy Greer, Hugh Laurie, Tim McGraw, Keegan-Michael Key, Locklin Munroe, Pierce Ganon, Aliya O'Brien and other actors.
