Despite its star-studded cast and huge production, Cats could be set to make a huge box office loss, according to reports.
After two weeks on a big screen and an abysmal replies from pundits, Tom Hooper’s adaptation of Andrew Lloyd Webber’s Cats has clawed precisely $38 million globally, which could result in a $100 million theatrical loss, adversary studio ministerials claim.
The Universal movie received a disappointing $6.5 million domestic debut just before Christmas, and regrettably for those involved, it failed to pick up during the busiest age of the year for going to the cinema.

Cats rate $100 million to produce, and according to Variety, it defined Universal back an additional $ 95 million for global marketing and deployment fees. In add-on, the filmmakers too liberated new prints of the movie and improved visuals during the opening weekend following a huge rush to complete the film in time for its December 20 liberation, resulting in fumbles like a human paw with a nuptial echoing on Judy Dench’s Old Deuteronomy.
It was widely hoped Cats would follow in the musical success of movies such as La La Land and The Greatest Showman, nonetheless there’s little confidence for achieving this now as potential observers make their way back to academy and manipulate after a period off over the festive period.
The demise of the huge production could probably have been prophesied given the response from the very first trailer in July, in which parties claimed it “wouldve been”‘ scariest movie of the year’.
