Overview
- The newly disclosed total-cost figure comes from the U.K. production company’s statutory financial filings, which provide rare line-item transparency.
- The filings state the film was in line with its budget after principal photography and ended the year below its production budget as post-production cost less than expected.
- Disney received $103.8 million in U.K. reimbursement, reducing net production spending to roughly $489.9 million.
- The movie grossed about $1.077 billion worldwide, and a typical revenue split implies around $538.5 million to Disney and an estimated $48.6 million theatrical profit, though overall profitability remains unclear without marketing and ancillary figures.
- Editor Maryann Brandon said the final post-production stretch was accelerated by roughly three months compared with The Force Awakens, and J. J. Abrams has said the film required fewer reshoots.
