The BFG


Steven Spielberg, 2016

Leading actors: Mark Rylance
Production companies: Walten Media
Distributor: Walt Disney

CAST
Mark Rylance is not an A-List star, but in the last Academy Awards received an Oscar for his role in Spielberg's last venture, the cold war drama Bridge of Spies.

INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY
Based on Roald Dahl's children's classic, it will be a film parents will want to show their children for memories of nostalgia. For 

Roald Dahl's adaptations at the box office
 
Charlie and the Chocolate Factory is by far the biggest box office hit, with its casting of A-List star Johnny Depp.

Considering its budget, The BFG only made just under 30% more, so it was considered a flop, as well as one of Spielberg's worst-grossing films.
