1. Pirates Of The Caribbean: On Stranger Tides ($410 Million)
In the end, On Stranger Tides is the most expensive film ever filmed. It's the fourth film in the Pirates of the Caribbean series. In the movie Captain Sparrow, Johnny Depp portrays the boozed-up pirate Johnny Depp, who gets paid an estimated $55 million for his role.
Ten visual effects companies are responsible for the film's 1112 CGI sequences. These costs, together with the wages paid to the actors, crew, and production team, contributed to the picture becoming the most expensive ever created in terms of production costs.
2.Avengers: Age Of Ultron ($365 Million):
This list would be incomplete without a mention of the many superhero movies that have been produced throughout the years. Taking place two years after the events of The Avengers (2012). In the film, Robert Downey Jr. received $44 million for his role as Ironman.
Additionally, the film's final combat sequence and computer-generated imagery (CGI) robots are to blame for its excessive price tag!
3. Pirates Of The Caribbean: At World's End ($300 Million):
For both budget and box office, it was the year's most successful movie. Although the picture cost $300 million to produce and $900 million at the box office, it was a huge success.
The Pirates of the Caribbean: At World's End is the third film in the series. Johnny Depp received $55 million for his performance in the film. After all that money, it was worth every penny!
4. Avengers: Endgame:
After all, Age of Ultron cost $356 million, which is less than this new film's production cost. $75 million was the amount of money that Robert Downey Jr. was paid for his role in the movie.
His co-stars Chris Evans, Scarlett Johannson, and Chris Hemsworth each earned around $15 million for their parts in Endgame. CGI was also a large portion. In the race to be the highest-grossing picture, it has been up against Avatar since its release in 2019.
5. John Carter:
This was a high-budget picture that was a flop at the box office. Filming cost over $300 million, but only $284 million was made at the movie office.
As a result of John Carter's failure to meet expectations and Disney's decision to scrap any further plans for a sequel or trilogy, It was one of the biggest box office failures of all time when it was released.
