SSN places Replicas among the 10 most bankable films for U.S. audiences coming our of the American Film Market this year.
Insider trade paper SSN has placed Relicas on their list of 10 films coming out of the American FIlm Market that they think are poised to be financially successful at the domestic box office. They provided the following insight:
As the film is in pre-production, only a mood reel with a passionate Reeves interview was shown. Reeves’ name is synonymous with action sci-fi, which gives Replicas instant fanboy credibility. That Transformers and G.I. Joe producer Di Bonaventura is on-board means this project will get a fully-realized world. While some films about cloning and future tech have a tendency to come off as cold and out of touch with present needs, Replicas resonates by asking the question, if your family or loved ones are killed but you could bring them back, would you? That question, coupled with a solid production team, should yield promising box office results.
