In case anyone was curious, $40 million back in 2006 would be just over $65.5 million today if you adjusted for inflation.

So, a 250 million break-even threshold. Considering it is posied to make at least 180 million in its opening weekend, it’ll easily break-even before the beginning of the 2nd weekend.

Half of that budget would go to paying the actresses’ salaries.

Those 4 actors are probably getting huge back end deals.

This has to be one of the most expensive live action, non-effects driven comedies. Up there with How Do You Know and Town & Country

Stacked cast, insane fashion and outfits, and hype through the roof with that budget? This will print a shitload of money

Very cool that David Frankel’s about to have the biggest hit of his career. He’s the kind of reliable commercial director that barely exists these days.

Given people on here always complain that budgets are too high and things should cost like $10-15m, nice to see a rare consensus that DWP2 budget is fine.

Watched the first the other day since I’m seeing the 2nd because my wife is a big fan.
It’s honestly a lot better than I ever expected a fashion film to be. It’s witty, and funny, and very well/fast paced.

Anne Hathaway’s about to be red hot. The Devil Wears Prada 2, The Odyssey, End of Oak Street, and Verity.
