Get Him to the Greek

A down‑on‑his‑luck British rocker is coaxed into a high‑stakes comeback gig at LA’s Greek Theatre to save a cash‑strapped record label, forcing his reluctant talent scout to juggle the label’s survival against his own crumbling personal life.

Aaron Green has 72 hours to get a rock star from London to L.A. Pray for him.

Synopsis

Pinnacle Records is attempting to revive its struggling company with a comeback concert in Los Angeles featuring Aldous Snow, a once-prominent rock star who has largely disappeared from public view in recent years. Record company intern Aaron Green is tasked with the challenging responsibility of bringing his longtime idol, the unpredictable Aldous Snow, back to Los Angeles for the event.

How many hands made this film

The scale of the collaboration

Principal cast & crew: 33

These are the principals we have on file — the full crew ran to the hundreds. Every film this size was made by far more hands than any credits list ever names.

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.

Box Office

2010 · Box office

⚖️ Fell short of break-even — grossed 2.3× 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).
