Cinema Nut - by Lyzsi Sinclair

MOVIE: Why do they call it a 'turnaround' when a studio has dumped a film?

A friend of mine asked the other day 'What do they mean by 'turnaround'?

Basically, "Turnaround" means that if a studio drops a film, there is a certain amount of time before the film can actually get back into what ever area of production it was in when it was dropped. The studio may do this for whatever reason they choose (production looks too risky, actors arent experienced enough, the list goes on).

Producers have the opportunity to refinance and reaarange the film with another studio, and in some instances with new actors and crew members. Some big studios won't allow the film to even begin a turnaround, as they may want to hold all rights to its concept to themselves.
