I Spy
Top spy Alex Scott must team up with brash boxing champion Kelly Robinson to retrieve a stolen stealth fighter and stop a ruthless arms dealer from selling it, all while their clashing styles threaten the mission’s success.
“Attitude meets espionage.”
Synopsis
When the Switchblade, the most sophisticated prototype stealth fighter developed to date, is stolen from the U.S. government, one of the country's top spies, Alex Scott, is tasked with the case. Unexpectedly, he is paired with Kelly Robinson, a cocky civilian and world-class boxing champion, for a high-stakes, covert mission. Their objective is to capture Arnold Gundars, one of the world's most successful arms dealers, using a combination of skill and humor.

A crew of 72+ 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.

📉 Underperformed — grossed 0.7× 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).
