Part 4/8:
Contrary to early reports claiming a budget around $80 million, recent revelations from The Hollywood Reporter indicate that Madame Webb's budget soared into the low hundred-million-dollar range—estimations place it between $100 million and $115 million. This surge likely stemmed from extensive reshoots, production adjustments, and additional costs not initially disclosed.
This inflated budget dramatically alters the film's break-even point. To simply recoup production and marketing investments, Madame Webb would need to generate roughly $300 million worldwide—an unlikely feat given its current trajectory. At best, the film might gross around $100 million globally, which is far from enough to avoid losing substantial sums.
