‘The Gray Man’: Netflix’s $220 Million Action Movie is Curiously Being Hidden

July 9, 2022 Jordan Ruimy

The most expensive Netflix movie ever produced is being released next Friday. It’s called “The Gray Man.” Have you heard of it?

The film stars Ryan Gosling and Chris Evans, two major A-list stars, and is directed by ‘Avengers’ filmmakers Joe and Anthony Russo, who are probably the most popular MCU directors.

So, why is Netflix hiding this movie?

You’d think for such a major investment, they would be heavily promoting this is one, but there’s barely been any marketing. Even worse, they’re holding reviews until 9am on Thursday, July 14th, that same evening it’ll be released in theaters.

“The Gray Man” cost $220 million, and that’s not even counting the reshoots done last year. It’ll be available on Netflix July 22nd, a week after it’s theatrically released. I’m supposed to watch it on Tuesday morning.
