Michael Jai White discussed the profitability of his movie, “Outlaw Johnny Black,” which he wrote, directed, and produced.
He spoke about how this film generated more income than many of his more high-budget projects due to being continually rediscovered and watched by a loyal fan base, resulting in paid screenings over time. He has preferred this ‘slow burn’ method and ‘mailbox money’ as part of his deal structure rather than receiving large amounts of money upfront.
