Part 9/12:

Elemental’s current performance hints at a potentially significant financial loss. With a reported production budget of approximately $200 million, plus substantial marketing costs, projections suggest the film might struggle to reach $200 million globally—a figure that is unlikely to recoup expenses. Similar recent Disney releases have experienced tepid box office returns, and the competition from upcoming titles like DreamWorks’ Ruby Gilman adds further pressure.

Unless Elemental manages to ignite audience enthusiasm through word-of-mouth, its future box office trajectory is bleak. Given Disney's history of releasing films that perform well internationally, the film might still reach a moderate global total, but expectations are low.
