>>94242534>Baby Driver cost nothing to make, and is about to make nearly three times its budget due to strong legs.No it didn't, just google box office gross, or checkout Box Mojo, or TheNumbers or any other site with an expertise on the Box Office, the studio gets ON AVERAGE 55% of the domestic box office GROSS, around ~35-40% of the foreign gross, except China which only returns 25%.
So Baby Driver made ~87 million domestic, from this the studio/distributor gets 55% = ~$48 million, the production cost was $34 million, which means that it has made ~$14 million in profit, this is not bad for a small budget movie, but it's hardly big money for the studio to share with Sony, also this does not take into consideration the marketing budget, likely this was small, probably in the $10 million range, which would put the actual domestic profit down to $4 million.
But we also have the foreign box office, there it has made $34 million of which the studio gets ~14 million, which brings us to a nice ~$18 million profit in it's box office run.
With streaming, dvd/bluray, network sales, it will end up making a decent profit, enough for another small budget sequel, but it's not some HUGE money maker.
