After Morbius and Tron: Ares, there is perplexity in Hollywood about Jared Leto

Although he loves his singing career (with his Thirty Seconds to Mars) as much as that of an actor, Jared Leto he still won one Oscar in 2014 as best supporting actor for Dallas Buyers Cluba leap that put him definitively under the Hollywood spotlight. But how long will we have left? The release of Tron: Areswhere he plays the rebellious AI of the title, was very delicate: Leto arrived with an outcome below the expectations of Morbius (about eighty million budget for 167 worldwide gross), not to mention that Blade Runner 2049 (2017), although more choral, was shipwrecked with 276,600,000 dollars raised in the world, compared to a cost of around 180. Ultimately, although esteemed in his performancesLeto still had to prove to earn presence in a big budget filmspendable on the plan of marketing: despite his notable commitment to promotion of Tron: Aresthe film started with around sixty million registered worldwide during the first weekend, too little to justify a blockbuster worth over 180 millionmoreover expressly wanted and sought by Leto. Tron: Ares exists precisely forJared's interestas the screenwriter revealed Jesse Wigutow to Polygon: a first draft of the script, in which his character was less important, had not received the OK from Disneyworried about spending too much on a project that would attract a narrow audience of nerds enthusiasts (Tron Legacy in 2010 it was in fact another box office disappointment). When Leto became co-producer of the feature film in 2017, he managed to get it off the ground over the years... with economic results that currently confirm the executives' fears. According to Hollywood Reporter sources, Jared Leto's days in expensive films are numbered, but those same sources are blaming the weakness of Tron: Ares on the entire project.
