From Box Office Flop To Netflix Favorite: ‘The Protégé’s Redemption

Image Source:: Lionsgate Over the years, streaming platforms have breathed new life into movies that might have stumbled in theaters but found unexpected success with a wider audience later on. One such film is the 2021 action-packed thriller The Protégé. Initially, the movie didn’t make much noise at the box office, earning only $8 million during its theatrical run. However, since landing on Netflix, it has experienced a remarkable resurgence becoming one of the platform’s most-watched films. The movie boasts an impressive cast, including Maggie Q, Academy Award nominated actors Samuel L. Jackson, and Michael Keaton. Directed by Martin Campbell, The Protégé revolves around Anna, who was rescued as a child by Moody, a legendary hitman. Trained to be a lethal contract killer herself, Anna becomes the best in the world. But when Moody is brutally murdered, she is driven to seek vengeance for the man who shaped her life.
