Risks

  1. No Distribution Agreements: There are no signed sales-agent agreements or streamer interest letters as yet.
  2. No Completion Bonds: Absence of standard production risk mitigation tools. A completion bond is an insurance‑style guarantee that a film (or TV project) will be finished and delivered on time and on budget. If unforeseen problems threaten completion, the bond company steps in—financially or operationally—to make sure the picture is wrapped and delivered to distributors.
  3. Recent Performance: Rodriguez’s recent films have shown more modest returns. The changing landscape of Hollywood due to the impact of the pandemic may impact the performance of the films.
  4. Market Uncertainty: Evolving distribution landscape and audience preferences could also impact the success of the films.
