Quote from: The Legendary Shark on 27 April, 2024, 04:50:02 PMI guess there are things like petitioning arts funding organisations for help financing the project or starting some sort of "We Want Dredd" campaign but I'm not sure there would be enough interest.
It's not about the level of interest, it's literally about the insane amount of money required. Minimum table stakes for this sort of thing on a major streaming service is $10 million per episode.
For something like a Dredd TV series, which is going to require purpose-built sets and FX elements for pretty much every shot, I suspect we'd be waaaay over a $100M budget for an 8-10 episode season.
My gut feeling is you'd be talking about $250M for a full season. This, based on a property that didn't make its money back on a $50M movie...? That's a tough sell.
