Overview
- The Anthony Mackie historical epic earned about $487,848 in North America from just over 1,000 theaters, averaging roughly $483 per screen in one of the weakest wide openings on record.
- Reviews were harsh, with a 27% Rotten Tomatoes score and a 1.9 out of 10 on IMDb, which signaled poor word of mouth.
- The production cost about $150 million, was financed primarily by Saudi-backed MBC Group, and was filmed in Saudi Arabia.
- Post-production stretched over years after director Rupert Wyatt left the edit over creative differences before later returning.
- Vertical Entertainment handled the U.S. release with limited marketing, leaving upcoming international rollouts to determine whether losses can be reduced.
