Gossip_Boy Posted March 14, 2023 Share Posted March 14, 2023 No rom-com ever should be having the budget of a blockbuster. I’m surprised they even considered it in the first place but it’s Netflix so… Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baby Judas Posted March 15, 2023 Share Posted March 15, 2023 Lol. No Netflix Romcom should have a budget of more than 10M. Just sayin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Katy V.! Posted March 15, 2023 Share Posted March 15, 2023 1 hour ago, Shelter said: Ridiculous budget so good that they shut it down. Get smaller stars or those willing to take a pay cut. I'd rather have actors (and crew, but lets be realistic) getting paid more than any studio keeping that money, though. - Netflix is going to learn that talent only likes their deep pockets. This shift will be interesting to watch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kandicha Posted March 15, 2023 Share Posted March 15, 2023 Awh. I love Nancy Meyers movies but I can see why they shut this one down with that budget. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fridayteenage Posted March 15, 2023 Share Posted March 15, 2023 looked up expensive romcoms. 2010's How Do You Know cost $120 mil and made...$49 mil. Reese Witherspoon $15 mil Owen Wilson $10 mil Paul Rudd $3 mil Jack Nicholson $12 mil director James L Brooks $10 mil So the salaries alone cost more than the global box office. Embarrassing.

okgo Posted March 15, 2023 Author Share Posted March 15, 2023 Maybe a diff studio picks it up and gets a theatrical release? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fridayteenage Posted March 15, 2023 Share Posted March 15, 2023 streaming companies are the only ones who can not be totally insane in doing a romcom that sails past $100 mil budget. i mean, even the hyped hit with george & julia cost $60 mil.

Broken Posted March 15, 2023 Share Posted March 15, 2023 (edited) NOT $150M... It's a ******* romcom, not a Star Wars movie . Set It Up is a decent/good Netflix romcom. The movie cost $10M to make. Hulu's Palm Springs cost $5M to make. The movie was great AND critically acclaimed. They should hire the leads of those movies: Zoey Deutch (Scarlett), Cristin Milioti (Penélope), Andy Samberg (Owen) and Glen Powell (the woman-beater aka Fassbender).

I mean the budget will likely be smaller now as its unknown if the cast will stay the same (but prob still expensive judging by her other romcoms ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Arcadius Posted May 4, 2023 Share Posted May 4, 2023 Well, they definitely didn't pay $100M I'm sure, that's probably just how much they were negotiating with Netflix. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
