'Cowboys & Aliens': Who'll Feel the Pain

What an upset. Jon Favreau's Cowboys & Aliens, costing $163 million to make, opened to a disappointing $36.4 million and nearly got beat by The Smurfs. The impact of the film will be spread among several top players. DreamWorks, Universal and Ryan Kavanaugh's Relativity Media financed; producers include Brian Grazer and Ron Howard, and Steven Spielberg is an exec producer. Paramount is distributing overseas, where Cowboys will try to make up for its meek domestic debut.
