Bankability Index

28 / 100

All figures are associated, not attributed — box-office numbers are sourced from TMDB and Wikipedia (reused under CC BY-SA), shown in US$, and weighted by billing prominence. Coverage varies by title; figures are estimates, not audited trade data.

What drives the index

2.6x return · 55% of films profitable · little recent work. Weighted toward recent releases (a film counts half as much every 6 years) and toward titles they actually carried.

The Great Gatsby

Titles are ones WatchWise has catalogued so far — not necessarily a complete filmography.

Gross against budget on the work that still counts. 5x and above tops out.

Consistency55

Share of films that turned a profit — steady earners beat one-off hits.

Scale59

Budget level the industry trusts them with. The trade's own vote of confidence.

Trajectory—

Last three films against the three before. 50 is flat; higher is rising.

Trajectory needs at least four dated titles with figures, so it's left out here and its weight shared across the rest.
