4) The Avengers (2012) – $220 Million
Here is another superhero movie we all loved. Surely it was one of the best Marvel movies until the Guardians of the Galaxy came along.
As the plot well says, the “Earth’s mightiest heroes must come together and learn to fight as a team if they are to stop the mischievous Loki and his alien army from enslaving humanity.”
With a budget of $220 million, they managed to make an expensive but profitable film. And when I say The Avengers was a profitable film I mean it made $623,279,547 only in the USA.
That is quite an expensive movie for Marvel and Disney universe. The production must have cost a lot, but paying all the actors involved into this movie, sure was a quite bit of cash.
The ability of keeping all the contracts together must have cost Marvel big time, especially since the films leading up it turned all the actors into bigger stars.
And now it got us all excited about the second Avengers movie which will also have an estimated budget of $250 million.
Distribution: Robert Downey Jr., Chris Evans, Mark Ruffalo, Chris Hemsworth, Scarlett Johansson, Jeremy Renner, Clark Gregg.
