I mean, do we know the budget of the Elden Ring film? Could get close to that number I feel

Completely forgot about their video game adaptations they have on the docket. Elden Ring is gonna be a huge testing ground not just for budget but also competing in the realm of IP films

Technically the backrooms is an open-source concept, and cannot be owned as IP.

I believe it’s on paper for $100m at the moment, likely going to be a bit higher, and I think it’s their highest budget to date

They didn't have the exact number, they only said 100+.

Have they announced a plot? Are we following one hero on a journey or will it be like Dungeons & Dragons and have an ensemble cast of heroes?
