Ryan Gosling Would be Clenching: Chris Pratt’s The Garfield Movie is Primed to Achieve One Feat ‘The Fall Guy’ Miserably Failed to do
Ryan Gosling has been making waves since last year, all due to his summer blockbuster, Barbie, creating a global phenomenon. The actor is back with Oppenheimer actress, Emily Blunt in The Fall Guy which will surely make you laugh. But, the movie is miserably failing in one aspect that Chris Pratt’s The Garfield Movie has almost covered way before its release in the United States.

The animated adventure comedy film has managed to bring back nearly 80% of its production budget, whereas The Fall Guy struggles ahead of its digital release.

Sony’s animated The Garfield Movie stars Chris Pratt as the iconic cynical orange tabby Persian cat’s voice, who reunites with his long-lost father, Vic (Samuel L. Jackson). Garfield and his canine friend, Odie (voiced by Harvey Guillén) are forced to embark on a high-stakes adventure with Vic. The other voice cast includes Hannah Waddingham, Nicholas Hoult, Brett Goldstein, and Bowen Yang.

Currently playing in 27 markets, the movie has grossed $49 million worldwide as per Deadline, covering major of its entire production budget. The $49 million benchmark is the final grossing after the movie amassed another $10.3 million this weekend. The movie premiered in certain international markets on May 1, though it is set to release next weekend in the domestic market.

As the movie reportedly has a production budget of $60 million, it has successfully managed to bring back more than 80% of its production budget. This is quite a big feat as the movie is yet to open in international markets including Saudi Arabia, the UK, Indonesia, Australia, Poland, France, and Japan.
These markets could easily contribute to its box-office earnings but the movie would still need a boost from the US market to make an overall impact. It is still ahead of Ryan Gosling’s The Fall Guy which is gravely struggling despite its earlier release.

Ryan Gosling and Emily Blunt’s The Fall Guy was expected to be another summer hit but things don’t look promising. Debuted less than three weeks ago, the action-comedy banger is yet to recover its production cost which is reportedly $130 million as per The Hollywood Reporter.
Kicking off with a little over $27m in its first weekend, it grossed $8.5 million domestically in its third weekend with over $7 million more added more from international markets. According to Collider, Gosling’s new project amassed $62 million at the US box office and another $64 million from overseas markets, making its global earnings $127 million.

With how it’s running, the movie is expected to end its theatrical run under $200 million globally. Given its reported production budget, the movie would need at least $260 million at the worldwide box office to be considered a success.
However, the hope is getting bleak as the movie is already struggling at the box office as it gears up for its digital release, which is expected to be later this month.
Loosely based on the classic 1980s TV series of the same name, The Fall Guy revolves around an ex-stuntman (Gosling) who comes out of his retirement to work on his ex-girlfriend’s (Blunt) directorial debut film. However, he finds himself involved in a conspiracy surrounding the star of the production (Aaron Taylor-Johnson).
While The Fall Guy is running in theatres, The Garfield Movie will release on May 24 in the US.
