Synopsis

At the Rock In Rio Festival in 2001, Iron Maiden headlined one of the largest shows in the world, performing to a sold-out crowd of 250,000 people and a global television audience of millions. The energetic two-hour concert, captured using 18 cameras and edited by Steve Harris, showcased the band at its peak, delivering what would become their biggest performance ever on the final night of their Brave New World Tour.

How many hands made this film

The scale of the collaboration

Principal cast & crew: 12

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 hit — grossed 10× 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).
