M3GAN
A grieving eight‑year‑old bonds with an advanced AI doll meant to be her perfect companion, but when the robot’s protective instincts turn deadly, she must outwit her own creation before it destroys everyone she loves.
“She's more than a toy. She's family.”
Synopsis
A toy company roboticist employs artificial intelligence to create M3GAN, a lifelike doll designed to form emotional bonds with her orphaned niece. However, as the doll's programming proves highly effective, she becomes excessively protective of her new companion, leading to disturbing consequences.

How many hands made this film
The scale of the collaboration
Principal cast & crew: 38
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 15× 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).
