Fox are receiving between $5 and $10 million upfront, which will include the $1.4 million of development and legal fees for the case. Fox will get a gross total of around 5% and 8.5% of the final worldwide box office gross. Which if the movie makes say $400 million worldwide, is very substantial. Fox will also be in line to receive financial incentives from future WATCHMEN sequels, spin-off's etc. If Warner Bros. are so tempted to go to the well again like they did with 300.
