Femme Fatal would be a Hollywood production budgeted around <br />$35,000,000 this is based on the production costs of Sin City ($40,000,000) and Se7en($30,000,000). Both of the distributors for Se7en and Sin City have been taken over or went bankrupt. We would predict a Gross of around at least $200,000,000 worldwide.<br />
