Indiana Jones & The Dial Of Destiny Budget & Disney’s Massive Box Office Loss Revealed

Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny‘s final budget and the film’s box office losses for Disney are revealed in a new report. Directed by James Mangold, the fifth and seemingly final installment in the beloved Indiana Jones franchise sees Harrison Ford return as the intrepid archeologist to seek out Archimedes’ Antikythera mechanism. The film earned somewhat mixed reviews from critics, and ended up significantly underperforming at the box office upon its release in theaters last summer.

A new report from Forbes now reveals the true extent of the losses from Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny‘s box office performance. According to the publication, the film’s final budget came in at a staggering $387.2 million, $79 million of which went toward post-production costs in early 2023. After factoring in theaters’ cuts of the sequel’s $384 million box office haul (generally about half) and reimbursements from the UK government, Disney is left with an estimated loss of $134.2 million, though this figure doesn’t take into account marketing costs nor revenue generated from merchandise and physical media sales.
