A major legacy studio in the same situation would come under intense scrutiny if a film carrying that price tag opened to those numbers, but Amazon insists its business model is entirely different and fueled by subscribers, and not just box office. It also hopes to launch a new film franchise.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/  a-font-body-m     \">\n\tAnd exhibitors are certainly happy to play the first proper Christmas movie since before the pandemic when <em>The Grinch<\/em> opened in 2018, not to mention a movie with such high profile talent.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/  a-font-body-m     \">\n\tRated PG-13, the original story follows what happens when Santa Claus \u2014 whose code name is \u201cRed One\u201d \u2014 is kidnapped and the North Pole\u2019s head of security (Johnson) must team up with the world\u2019s most infamous bounty hunter (Evans) in what Amazon MGM describes as a globe-trotting, action-packed mission to save Christmas.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/  a-font-body-m     \">\n\tDirected by Jake Kasdan from a screenplay by Chris Morgan and a story by Hiram Garcia, <em>Red One<\/em> also stars Lucy Liu, Kiernan Shipka, Bonnie Hunt, Kristofer Hivju, Nick Kroll, Wesley Kimmel and J.K. Simmons. It is rated PG-13 in the U.S, where <a href=\"https:\/\/www.hollywoodreporter.com\/movies\/movie-reviews\/red-one-review-dwayne-johnson-chris-evans-christmas-1236054244\/\">reviews haven\u2019t been kind<\/a>. <\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/  a-font-body-m     \">\n\t<em>Red One<\/em> is the first in a series of year-end tentpoles preparing to open and, if all goes well, put the box office back on the nice list after a tough fall due to lack of product. On Nov. 22, Universal\u2019s <em><a href=\"https:\/\/www.hollywoodreporter.com\/t\/wicked\/\" id=\"auto-tag_wicked_1\" data-tag=\"wicked\">Wicked<\/a><\/em> and Paramount\u2019s <em><a href=\"https:\/\/www.hollywoodreporter.com\/t\/gladiator-ii\/\" id=\"auto-tag_gladiator-ii_1\" data-tag=\"gladiator-ii\">Gladiator II<\/a><\/em> both debut, followed by Walt Disney Animation\u2019s <em><a href=\"https:\/\/www.hollywoodreporter.com\/t\/moana-2\/\" id=\"auto-tag_moana-2_1\" data-tag=\"moana-2\">Moana 2<\/a><\/em> on Nov. 27. (Many have dubbed the high-profile corridor \u201cMoanapocalypse\u201d or \u201cGlicked.)<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/  a-font-body-m     \">\n\tAmazon MGM has waged a full-fledged marketing campaign for <em>Red One<\/em>, including advertising on major sporting events, coordinating an ambitious screening series and dispatching talent to points around the globe.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/  a-font-body-m     \">\n\tThe studio also did a a number of local promotions to reach multicultural audiences. Amazon collaborated with It\u2019s Boba Time, a popular AAPI-owned boba company, in all 88 of their locations for two weeks and created a custom\u00a0<em>Red One<\/em>-themed drink called the \u201cMissing Santa.\u201d The studio partnered with five local Black-owned coffee shops and bakeries to host free\u00a0<em>Red One<\/em>\u00a0drink giveaways to promote the film during opening week. Locations included Hilltop in Los Angeles and Sip and Savor in Chicago. There were also activations in 13 stores in the Los Angeles area with a popular retailer within the Latine community, Curacao.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/  a-font-body-m     \">\n\tWarner Bros. Pictures is distributing the Seven Bucks production internationally, where it opened a week early to $28 million.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/  a-font-body-m     \">\n\tAmazon gave the greenlight to make <em>Red One<\/em> before it even bought MGM. Insiders say the film\u2019s success will be based on global box office combined with how it performs on Prime both this holiday season and for years to come. Put another way, the goal is for it to become a perennial holiday favorite.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js?client=ca-pub-3711241968723425\"\r\n     crossorigin=\"anonymous\"><\/script>\r\n<ins class=\"adsbygoogle\"\r\n     style=\"display:block\"\r\n     data-ad-format=\"fluid\"\r\n     data-ad-layout-key=\"-fb+5w+4e-db+86\"\r\n     data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-3711241968723425\"\r\n     data-ad-slot=\"7910942971\"><\/ins>\r\n<script>\r\n     (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});\r\n<\/script><br \/>\n<br \/><div data-type=\"_mgwidget\" data-widget-id=\"1660802\">\r\n<\/div>\r\n<script>(function(w,q){w[q]=w[q]||[];w[q].push([\"_mgc.load\"])})(window,\"_mgq\");\r\n<\/script>\r\n<br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.hollywoodreporter.com\/movies\/movie-news\/box-office-preview-red-one-1236060213\/\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>It\u2019s Dwayne Johnson and Chris Evans to the rescue.
