I think the film would be successful as the effects using the heavy CGI editing would attract people that like zombie movies. The 4K HD cameras being used will help increase the popularity of the movie across all countries this is because watching sci-fi movies on a large, high quality screen would make the movie look amazing. Having a big star like Channing Tatum who is increasing in popularity with his recent film '22 Jump Street' will attract customers that like his movies. Having a known and successful director like Christopher Nolan could attract people that like his movies, this will increase the revenue our business receives. Using a large set is saving money as well as giving us more possibilities to manipulate the surrounding areas using a green screen. Marketing worldwide would let more people know and that will lead to more people watching our movie. If the movie premiers in major worldwide cities customers that have seen it may recommend it to others which will lead to more people wanting to watch the movie. Having a successful hollywood writer will mean the script for the movie will be outstanding which will mean the storyline will be much better than other movies attracting more and more viewers.
