As a seasoned moviegoer with over three decades of cinematic adventures under my belt, I must confess that the impending release of ‘Red One’ has left me with a peculiar sense of anticipation, tinged with a hint of apprehension. With a budget as hefty as a whale and early predictions suggesting it might struggle to breach even the low twenties in its opening weekend, I find myself drawn to this spectacle like a moth to a flame – or perhaps more accurately, like a shipwrecked sailor to a sinking vessel.
In the world of big-budget films, not every risk brings a reward. The action-packed movie ‘Red One,’ starring Dwayne Johnson and Chris Evans, could be one of those risks that doesn’t lead to a big win at the box office.
Using a substantial budget of approximately $253 million, initial estimates indicate a relatively small opening weekend of roughly $36 million. However, my intuition tells me it may potentially drop to figures in the lower twenties.
As a gamer, I’ve got to say, it’s impressive news that “RED ONE,” the action-packed flick starring Dwayne Johnson and Chris Evans, has been forecasted to rake in an opening of $36 million. According to NRG, that’s quite a haul for a film with a mid-$200 million budget. Now, if only I could save up that kind of cash for my next gaming setup!

Originally scheduled for release in December 2024, the action-comedy featuring Santa Claus being kidnapped and a daring rescue team is now slated to come out next month. This change follows a sequence of delays and rescheduling by Amazon.
Based on reports from Deadline last year, it appears that the movie performed well during preliminary screenings. However, conflicting accounts such as one from TheInSneider indicate that these screenings may not have been as successful, with the movie being labeled as a ‘complete catastrophe.’
Problems with production aren’t just about inconclusive test results. As reported by The Wrap, Dwayne Johnson’s inconsistent punctuality—arriving hours late or failing to show up altogether—has resulted in an extra $50 million being added to the budget. A source directly commented, ‘Dwayne seems unconcerned.’
Jake Kasdan, who’s previously directed Johnson in both ‘Jumanji’ films, is in charge, but his past work might not be enough to ensure this project will thrive. Some social media users are already expressing doubt, with comments about the high budget and the film’s unimpressive visuals popping up.
$200M???? They thought this could make $500M plus? How do these execs keep their jobs?

Shocked it’s that high. It looks absolutely terrible.

It would come as quite a surprise if it reached $36 million. That film seems destined to be a disaster. I’m not entirely convinced about its production. There must have been some influential connections at work, given the circumstances.

Maybe this flop will get Evans back in the Cap suit a little sooner.

Regardless of pessimistic predictions, the customary ‘paycheck’ films continue to thrive. It’s uncertain whether ‘Red One’ will become part of the unforgettable flops or prove everyone wrong. Time alone will tell if we’re witnessing a potential box office disaster that’s hard to ignore.
