That sucks!
“Man Down,” a war thriller with Shia LaBeouf, grossed just $8.70 when it premiered in one U.K. theater over the weekend. That means he sold ONE ticket, given that the U.K. movie tickets are an average at £7.21.
“Poor Shia,” said Paul Dergarabedian, senior media analyst at ComScore. “That opening could be in the Guinness World Records or something.”
The film played in one location, Reel Cinema in Burnley. It was simultaneously released digitally, making the theatrical release something of an afterthought. It launches on DVD and Blu-ray next month, according to the Guardian.
I highly doubt they will make the money back spent on making the film.
