Without a big-budget blockbuster on the resume and armed with an adult-oriented, potentially controversial original story, Aronofsky is finding it challenging to line up financing, but remains committed to the project. "All these films are hard to make so you never know," he says. "We're trying to get it made and we'll see."

IFC: DARON talks [NOAH] Antibody Jun 20, 11:21

no DARON film has ever opened over 4M for the weekend. no film other than BSWAN has made over 27M and NOAH is going to IPO for $50?? come lobogotti Jun 20, 11:53

No DARON film has been budgeted as a $130M tentpole. {nm} Antibody Jun 20, 12:07

wow, can't believe he got 130M for this one. i have faith in him as a director and if he brings on Bale that will only help. {nm} lobogotti Jun 20, 12:12

He hasn't secured funding yet, from what I read. And I doubt he will get 130mil for such a project. {nm} numbersix_99 Jun 20, 12:30

agreed. i had no idea he was going that route. i would venture to say he doesn't get that kind of money for that type of film... lobogotti Jun 20, 12:42

""I want to make a big event film" It's gonna be an end of the world disaster movie, think Roland Emmerich. {nm} Antibody Jun 20, 12:46

hey, I would be the first in line to see it done right by DARON. that is a BIG budget given the source material. {nm} lobogotti Jun 20, 12:57

Only one of Darren Aronofsky's films has ever opened wide. {nm} tawdryhepburn Jun 20, 13:08

the wrestler ended up getting a wide release (as well as Black Swan). {nm} lobogotti Jun 20, 13:10

Yeah, but that wasn't their opening. They played for months before they ever hit 800+ screens. {nm} tawdryhepburn Jun 20, 13:15

true, which is why it's hard to imagine him getting that much money for the film, but hey starnger things have happened. {nm} lobogotti Jun 20, 13:16

Its very feasible his production partner has a good history of raising capital for films in and out of studios {nm} homeboy1 Jun 26, 11:00
