Apple's foray into Hollywood is marked by its willingness to invest heavily in big-budget productions in pursuit of critical acclaim and commercial success. With 13 Oscar nominations for its historical epics 'Killers of the Flower Moon' and 'Napoleon,' Apple stands as a formidable player in the film industry, trailing only behind Netflix in terms of nominations.
The cost of these ambitious projects is staggering, with 'Killers of the Flower Moon' alone reportedly carrying a price tag of $215 million. Despite the substantial investment, both 'Killers' and 'Napoleon' have proven to be profitable ventures for Apple, bolstered by ancillary revenue streams and strong viewership on the Apple TV+ platform.
