Nearly 20 months after it was initially scheduled for release, Warner Bros./Skydance?s ?Geostorm? finally arrived in theaters this weekend and quickly capsized at the box office. Against a budget of $120 million, which included $15 million for extensive reshoots, the climate change thriller has only made a reported $66.8 million worldwide, including $14.7 million domestically. So, how much money will ?Geostorm? lose? Starring Gerard Butler as an engineer trying to fix a satellite system designed to end climate change, ?Geostorm? revolves around man-triggered global catastrophes.
The film is the second biggest flop for Warner Bros. this year, after ?King Arthur: Legend of the Sword? failed to recoup its $175 million budget back in May. It?s also another flop for Skydance, which co-financed ?Baywatch? with Paramount earlier this year, only making $177 million worldwide against a $69 million production budget.
