Johnny English
When bumbling MI7 rookie Johnny English is thrust into the spotlight as the only surviving operative, he must outwit a cunning French crime lord and recover the stolen Crown Jewels before Britain’s greatest treasure vanishes forever.
“He knows no fear. He knows no danger. He knows nothing.”
Synopsis
Johnny English is a lowly pencil pusher working for MI7. He is suddenly promoted to super spy after Agent One is assassinated and every other agent is blown up at his funeral. When a billionaire entrepreneur sponsors the exhibition of the Crown Jewels and the valuable gems disappear on opening night and on English's watch, the newly designated agent must jump into action to find the thief and recover the missing gems.

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 4.0× 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).
