From Star Wars to Avengers Endgame: 7 costliest films ever made

Films where ambition met sky-high budgets to deliver pure cinematic spectacle. JJ Abrams revived a galaxy far, far away with the 2015 reboot that bridged generations. Returning icons like Han Solo (Harrison Ford) and Princess Leia (Carrie Fisher) met new heroes Rey, Finn, and villain Kylo Ren. The Force clearly needed deep pockets. Dino drama went mega-budget in this Chris Pratt-led sequel. With cutting-edge CGI and action-packed chaos, this 2018 film took prehistoric thrill to a pricey new level — but audiences couldn't look away. The grand finale of the Skywalker saga came with an epic budget. Resistance fighters, dark forces, and legacy heroes collided in this 2019 conclusion, starring Adam Driver, Daisy Ridley, Oscar Isaac, and Mark Hamill. Orlando Bloom and Keira Knightley may have jumped ship, but Johnny Depp held the anchor. Paired with Penélope Cruz, this fourth installment banked on exotic visuals, mythical quests, and a mind-blowing budget. The Avengers reassembled for a second time to battle the rogue AI Ultron. This 2015 Marvel spectacle brought together Robert Downey Jr., Chris Hemsworth, Scarlett Johansson, and more — with sky-high production costs to match the superpowers. Marvel's crown jewel. Endgame wasn't just a movie, it was a global moment. Iron Man's ultimate sacrifice, Thor's transformation, and the final stand against Thanos all played out in a production that left no expense spared — and no fan dry-eyed. James Cameron once again raised the stakes — and the budget — with this long-awaited sequel to Avatar. With groundbreaking underwater visuals and immersive world-building, the film went on to gross $2.3 billion globally, proving sometimes, big risks pay off bigger.
