Synopsis

A seasoned international spy is determined to leave behind his high-risk life in order to reconnect with his estranged wife and daughter. However, before he can do so, he must complete one final mission—balancing two of the most challenging tasks he has ever faced: tracking down the world's most dangerous terrorist and caring for his teenage daughter for the first time in ten years, while his wife is away.

How many hands made this film

The scale of the collaboration

A crew of 567+ credited

Why a floor?

This is a minimum, not a total. We only count the credits we’ve captured so far, and coverage is uneven — a blockbuster might show a few hundred names while another of the same size shows a couple dozen. The real crews all ran into the thousands. The number here only grows as full credits are enriched — so we frame it as a floor, never a headcount.

⚖️ Fell short of break-even — grossed 1.9× its budget

Why 2.5×?

Cinemas keep roughly half of every ticket sold, and a wide release’s marketing often costs about as much again as the film — so a movie needs to gross around 2.5× its production budget just to break even theatrically. It’s a rule of thumb, not the studio’s ledger (home video and streaming come later).
