Johnny English Reborn

A little intelligence goes a long way.

Synopsis

As the world's most prominent heads of state gather for a conference with the potential to reshape global politics, MI-7 is alerted that the Chinese premier has become the target of highly skilled assassins. The mission falls to Johnny English, a once-disgraced agent who, armed with cutting-edge weaponry and gadgets rivaling those of James Bond, uncovers a vast conspiracy involving some of the world's most powerful organizations. Determined to restore his reputation, English sets out to stop the assassins before they can carry out their attack.

How many hands made this film

The scale of the collaboration

A crew of 57+ 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.

Box Office

2011 · Box office

Made its money back — grossed 3.6× 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).
