For the week ending 6/6/21, 362 Million minutes of Cruella was watched. At 130 minutes runtime, that's 2.785 Million views of the movie for the week.

Adding in last week's number, at $30 a pop, that's $148M income unshared with theaters for the first week on D+.

Now, as has been discussed in Raya's thread, Disney films do tend to be rewatched... a lot. Moana and Frozen 2, e.g., keep showing up on the top ten movies streamed every week for the past four months. OTOH, Cruella is not a musical, which is often the hallmark of a most-watched movie.

So, depending on one's guesstimate of rewatches, if you take off a percentage, then Cruella's income on premium streaming is...

- 0% = $148M
-10% = $133M
-20% = $118M
-30% = $104M
-40% = $89M
-50% = $74M


Add to that: In theaters, the Box Office is $205M worldwide (as a rule of thumb, Disney would get half of that: $103M).
I love your dedication to charting…

but I don’t think you’re counting how many times movies are streamed repeatedly. It ads up quickly.

great move and great success…but if you are suggest D+ is making bazillions…then they’ll sell that to wall st and charge us $1,200 a day for our park tickets…

So “don’t” in other words 🤪👍🏻

I read it…fyi

it would be nice if they gave official streaming purchases…not guesstimating

For the week ending 6/27/21, a total of 1.03 Billion minutes of Cruella was watched. At 130 minutes runtime, that's 8 Million views of the movie since its debut on D+.

At $30 a pop, that's $238M income unshared with theaters for the first week on D+. Though, I've learned recently that platforms for D+ (like AppleTV) get 15% of the cut. So, that's $202M netted on D+.

-30% = $141M
-40% = $121M
-50% = $101M


Add to that: In theaters, the Box Office is $225M worldwide (as a rule of thumb, Disney would get half of that: $112M).

At a budget of $150M, it's clear that Cruella was a financial success for Disney.

On top of that, Cruella's CinemaScore was an A. And the general audience rating was good. The rating from critics was mixed to good.

I hope this doesn't affect the plans for a sequel, because Cruella was surprisingly a fun watch. But who knows what might happen..

Cruella made an estimated $50+ million on Disney+ Premier Access. That translates to a little under 2 million Disney+ subscribers who bought the film on the platform.

Where did you get the $50+ million for Cruella? The article referred to $50 million for Jungle Cruise and that it is unknown how much it made on Cruella. I assumed you misread?

Oops. I did misread the article. I apologize for that. I deleted the post.

Well... with a Cruella 2 in the works, I doubt Emma's still considering suing Disney.
On that note:

https://variety.com/2021/film/news/emma-stone-cruella-2-1235041570/
“While the media landscape has been disrupted in a meaningful way for all distributors, their creative partners cannot be left on the sidelines to carry a disproportionate amount of the downside without the potential for upside,” Patrick Whitesell, Executive Chairman of Endeavor said of the new deal.

This agreement demonstrates that there can be an equitable path forward that protects artists and aligns studios’ interests with talent,” Whitesell continued. “We are proud to work alongside Emma and Disney, and appreciate the studio’s willingness to recognize her contributions as a creative partner. We are hopeful that this will open the door for more members of the creative community to participate in the success of new platforms.”

Guess they got someone with talent negotiations to nip another potential lawsuit in the bud
