‘Dark Phoenix’s Director Made an Even Bigger Box Office Bomb but It’s Now Redeeming Itself on Streaming

You'd think that directing a movie as poorly received — both critically and commercially — as Dark Phoenix would have consequences, but writer-director Simon Kinberg scored himself an A-list cast for his follow-up, which proved to be an even bigger bomb. The action film The 355 was reportedly conceived by Jessica Chastain when she worked with Kinberg on Dark Phoenix. But the movie tanked with both the audiences and the critics, resulting in a reported loss of over $90 million for Universal. The 355 is now redeeming itself on streaming, having found a spot on Netflix's domestic viewership charts.
