Netflix's next, the splashy, star-studded film, the Red Notice, will release soon, and it is certainly one of the most high-profile releases of the year. We are completely looking forward to the first-time combination of Dwayne Johnson, Ryan Reynolds, and Gal Gadot that seals the deal for us. So, what are the things in the film that is piquing our interest? Several things, actually. Let us take a look at the various things that makes the film a potential blockbuster.
Dwayne Johnson As An FBI Profiler
But what is the plot of Red Notice? In this movie, Dwayne Johnson plays an FBI profiler and the world's greatest tracker. He's on the lookout for a pair of thieves who has caused a lot of ruckus in daring adventures.
But when this FBI profiler crosses paths with a pair of criminals cross paths, they will need to find out exactly how they can make it work as per mutual benefits. We think there will be more in store for us as the high-profile actor will bring in a combination of humor, heart, and action to this blockbuster.
The 'Glamorous' Criminals
Red Notice also stars Gal Gadot and Ryan Reynolds, the world's greatest art thief, and con man, respectively. They are the criminals who team with Johnson's top-notch profiler whenever an Interpol-issued Red Notice finds their paths cross.
Particularly when it comes to Gal Gadot, who is following in the wake of Wonder Woman 1984. Red Notice is certainly one of the most high-profile projects for the rising star and the blockbuster star, Ryan Reynolds.
An Exhilarating Chase Sequence
When you have some of the biggest action stars on the planet, you can expect a lot of high-profile chase sequences. Dwayne Johnson was filming an exhilarating car chase scene and shared the same on Instagram.
He even shared a funny moment from the filming where the crew had to struggle to fit him inside the Porches. According to the Fast and Furious actor, this has certainly been one of the funniest chases, which says a lot about it. The superstar's special anecdotes on his social media handle make the whole thing an exciting affair.
It is the Netflix's Biggest and Most Expensive Blockstar
In recent years, Netflix has turned up its blockbuster games. As the biggest streaming service in the world, it has millions of users. And that means the company has to find innovative ways to enhance its content and make it the best. We can say that they have been successful so far. Other Netflix movies which were a sweeping hit are The Old Guard, The Irishman, Extraction, Triple Frontier, Project Power, Spenser Confidential, and 6 Underground.
Now, with Red Notice, they will be taking over the world-famous streaming service. At $ 200 million, it is one of the most expensive original projects yet. Netflix is hoping Red Notice turns out to be one of the biggest blockbuster hits.
Conclusion
Red Notice has turned out to be one of the globe-spanning action blockbusters. The tons and tons of action and explosions featuring the A-listers such as Dwayne Johnson, Gal Gadot, and Ryan Reynolds make it a movie to look forward to. So, it is no surprise that the actors got a payment of $20 million each. Things sure are on a higher pedestal for this big-ticket flick
That number adds up, thus explaining over a quarter of Red Notice's very high budget. Whether these inflated paychecks are what we should expect from future Netflix blockbusters is something we need to wait and watch. Industry experts believe that this would depend on the movie's performance at the theaters. The filming of the movie has been anything but easy. The extensive shooting process of the Red Notice has been undoubtedly long, and the cast and crew trying had to navigate through the trying times of the pandemic.
