Variety and THR reported Dunkirk has a budget of 100m. That's insane.

Wow. Then Dunkirk should fairly easily be profitable.

guessing it has to make 250ish WW to break even and 300M to turn a good profit, obviously the bigger domestic is less it needs WW

400m would be gravy

12.4m in the UK is really good right?

Marketing should have been expensive, so I'd say it needs at least $350M to be profitable. I'm confident it will.

It is, I read that it's one of the best openings there for original properties.

Remember that time when Besson said that everyone over 50 would see Dunkirk and everyone under 50 would see Valerian?

To give you some idea of how good that is, here's a list of some other recent blockbusters that have opened around the same number.


Logan (11.6 mil)
The Jungle Book (14 mil)
Spider-Man: Homecoming (12.1 mil)
Doctor Strange (11.3 mil)
Finding Dory (10.7 mil)


Also


Inception (9 mil)
