Top 6 Most Expensive Movies Ever Made
Awhile back, we put together an inflation-adjusted list of the Most Expensive Movies Ever Made. Of course, it’s hard to call a $100 million film the most expensive movie ever made when movies regularly exceed twice as much nowadays. So, without further ado (or inflation adjustment), we present the top five most expensive movies ever made.
6:King Kong – $207 million
The iconic ape returned to the silver screen for the first time in nearly 30 years in this 2005 remake of the original 1933 film. The film featured Naomi Watts as Kong’s number one lady and Jack Black as the inscrupulous film director looking to bank on the prodigious primate. Universal Studios certainly turned a profit with over $500 million in gross revenue.
5: X-Men: The Last Stand – $210 million
The third installment of the X-Men series saw Brett Ratner stepping into the directorial shoes to replace Bryan Singer as the mutant misfits’ world is turned upside down by forces both internal and external. The film received mixed reviews, but earned higher than either of its predecessors with $459,359,555 gross revenue. It was followed in 2009 by X-Men Origins: Wolverine.
