As a global cinephile with a soft spot for unconventional stories that resonate deeply, I am thrilled to see Thailand’s blockbuster hit, “How to Make Millions Before Grandma Dies,” making waves across the globe. Having had the pleasure of experiencing diverse cinematic landscapes, it is heartening to witness a Southeast Asian film breaking barriers and reaching new territories.
The blockbuster Thai film of 2024 titled “How to Make Millions Before Grandma Dies” aims to achieve something rarely attempted by commercial movies from Thailand: Global cinema domination.
Created at the successful GDH studio in Bangkok, “How to Make Millions Before Grandma Dies” resonates with its unconventional portrayal of a greedy young man who leaves his job to care for his ailing grandmother, hoping to claim her wealth. The movie has amassed $34 million in box office earnings across Southeast Asia and Australia/New Zealand, making it the highest-grossing Thai film in Indonesia, Malaysia, Singapore, the Philippines, Myanmar, Australia, and New Zealand.
On Monday, it was announced that the movie will be released in North American cinemas on September 13 (through Well Go USA), China on August 23 (Teamer Media), South Korea in October (NK Contents), UK and Ireland in December (Vertigo Releasing), the Netherlands on October 10 (Vedette Film), Belgium on November 13 (also Vedette Film), and India at a date yet to be determined (PVR). International distribution was managed by Nelson Mok of Mokster Films.
It’s encouraging to notice that distributors are enthusiastic about sharing this movie with their viewers, despite the fact that Southeast Asian films haven’t yet demonstrated commercial success in certain regions,” stated Mok. “Obviously, the tale has resonated profoundly with them.”
Making Millions Before Grandma Retires, directed by Pat Boonnitipat who also co-wrote the screenplay, introduces popular performer Putthipong Assaratanakul (alias Billkin) and 78-year-old actress Usha Seamkhum in her debut film performance.
As a devoted admirer, I can’t help but marvel at GDH’s impressive knack for unearthing hidden Thai talent! The studio’s 2017 high school thriller, Bad Genius, directed by the brilliant Nattawut “Baz” Poonpiriya, was initially a success in our homeland. However, it wasn’t until its journey to China that it truly took flight, ultimately raking in an astonishing $41 million!
