Netflix film chief Scott Stuber opened up about how the streaming service chooses which movies to make and compensates talent, and he weighed in on the ongoing conflict between Netflix and major theater chains over the streamer's shortened theatrical window in a discussion with Ron Howard that kicked off the Producers Guild of America's annual Produced By: New York conference on Saturday.
In putting together a deal for a project, Stuber said they look at someone's typical backend agreement and "we try to articulate with what we together, with their attorneys, assume will be the great success ratio of that film. So if we make a movie for $60 million, and it made $200 million, we pay people under the auspices that that what’s your deal would be. And what we never want to be is a place where people feel they got taken advantage of.
Expressing his support for the theatrical window and how Netflix extended it this year, Stuber said, "We want to do it; we just have to figure out how to do it right."
