The article text supplied for this page could not be retrieved — only site navigation menu items (Music, Film, Travel, Art, News, Shop, Mailing List) were returned, with no actual story content about the 2016 Paul Verhoeven film in question. As a result, there is no substantive information available to summarise about the film, its production history, or the Hollywood context referenced in the headline.

Based on the headline alone, the piece appears to discuss a 2016 Paul Verhoeven film that struggled to gain backing from major Hollywood studios, with a quote suggesting resignation about industry disinterest ("Why bother, you know?"). However, without the full article text, specific details such as the film's title, plot, budget, or the reasons for studio reluctance cannot be confirmed or summarised accurately.
