was coming off the 1996 hit\u00a0Grisham adaptation <em>A Time To Kill<\/em> and they courted\u00a0Joel Schumacher, who helmed <em>A Time To Kill,<\/em> to direct<em> Runaway Jury<\/em>. \u00a0Edward Norton was cast with a pay or play contract, but the project fell apart and Regency moved his pay or play over to <em><a href=\"https:\/\/bombreport.com\/yearly-breakdowns\/1999-2\/fight-club\/\">Fight Club<\/a><\/em>. \u00a0Alfonso Cuar\u00f3n boarded the project, but left. \u00a0Phillip Kaufman came and went. \u00a0Warner Bros was set to be domestic distributor, but they pulled out.<\/p>\r\n<p>In 2001 the project was moving forward with Mike Newell directing and Will Smith starring, but John Grisham had casting approval and refused approval for Will Smith. \u00a0Once again the film fell apart and the rights reverted back to the author. \u00a0Regency acquired the rights again and the project began to quickly move forward in 2002. \u00a0Throughout its development, $15 million was spent on the novel rights and screenplay expenses. \u00a0\r\n<span class=\"schema-faq wp-block-yoast-faq-block\"><span class=\"schema-faq-section\"><strong class=\"schema-faq-question\">The budget for <em>Runaway Jury<\/em><\/strong> <a class=\"schema-faq-answer\">was $60 million and it was fully financed by New Regency.\u00a0 FOX handled distribution.<\/a> <\/span> <\/span>\r\n<\/p>\r\n<p><em>Runaway Jury<\/em> was dated for October 17, 2003 and bowed against <em>The Texas Chainsaw Massacre<\/em> remake and the wide expansion of the better reviewed <em>Mystic River<\/em>, which would directly compete for adult auds. \u00a0It was tracking for an opening near $18 million, but pulled in a soft\u00a0$11,836,705 &#8212; placing #3 for the weekend led by <em>Chainsaw<\/em>.\u00a0 <em>Runaway Jury<\/em> posted a great second weekend hold, declining only 28.6% to\u00a0$8,446,650 and it continued to show small weekly drops in attendance, but the domestic run closed with a disappointing $49,443,628.<\/p>\r\n<p><em>Runaway Jury<\/em> did not fare any better overseas and cumed $30.7M.\u00a0 The worldwide theatrical receipts were $80.1M.\u00a0 About $44M would be returned after theaters take their percentage of the gross &#8212; which would not even cover global P&amp;A expenses.\u00a0 After the film underperformed, FOX had no interest in broadcasting the pic on their own network and TNT and its sister channel TBS took rights for $5 million.\u00a0 <em>Runaway Jury<\/em> was the last Grisham legal thriller to be set up at a studio.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Genre(s): Drama | Thriller Directed By:\u00a0Gary Fleder Written
