I never read books or anything. Do we see how the story ends this movie or we have to wait another year(s)?


We should see how this part of the story, parts 1 & 2 being the retelling of the first original book. But this is just the first story of an anthology of books that were very successful - and had some successful TV miniseries versions. There is talk the next film in the universe will be based on the next book. But I think a lot depends on how much money this actually brings in. Part 1 seemed to cover the costs of production and make a smallish mint. We'll see....

It made $400 million on a $165 million budget, but after all the marketing costs and theater cut it’s possible it lost a bit of money for WB. But we have to take in account Part 1 was available for free for Max subscribers on day 1 of the theatrical run. Part 2’s budget is reportedly $190 million, but with no immediate streaming option it’s going to blow Part 1’s box office performance out of the water. I think it also beats the first movie’s six Academy Awards. Messiah is coming, I have no doubt.

I’ll be doing my part. Have tickets to the IMAX early showing tomorrow at 7pm and for the first normal showing Thursday at 3pm.
