Ironclad
A determined band of rebel barons must hold Rochester Castle against King John’s ruthless mercenary army, risking death to protect the newly‑signed Magna Carta and the promise of liberty.
“Heavy metal goes medieval.”
Synopsis
In 1215, the rebel barons of England compelled their unpopular King John to affix his royal seal to the Magna Carta, a significant document that affirmed the rights of free men. However, within months of his commitment to the great charter, the king broke his word and gathered a mercenary army along the south coast of England, aiming to restore his tyrannical control over the barons and the country. Opposing him was the formidable Rochester Castle, a site that would come to symbolize the rebels' crucial fight for justice and freedom.

A crew of 52+ 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 0.2× 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).
