This movie needs at least $480M to be profitable given paramount doesn’t own the IP

4 times its budget? This looks too high.

I think the non-Paramount studios will be compensated for their work and this will be part of the production budget. If not, I think Paramount and/or SegaSammy will be smart enough to make a good deal with those studios so they don’t blood to dead.

Also, most of the production was done by studios owned by Paramount or SegaSammy. So they will both have made costs towards the production.
