John Carter
The third most expensive Hollywood movie on our list is John Carter which was released in 2012. This movie was directed by Andrew Stanton and cost $263 million to make. There was a lot of controversy in the background while this movie was being made which could have led to the cost being so high.
Tangled
If you are a fan of the movie Tangled, you might be surprised to hear just how expensive it was to make. This movie is an animated one and was directed by both Nathan Greno and Byron Howard. The movie cost $260 million to make but this is mostly due to how long it took. Reports suggest that the story was changed a lot over the course of 10 years!
Spider-Man 3
Although there have been many different takes on the Spiderman story, including the recent movies starring Tom Holland, Spider-Man 3 stands to have been the most expensive. This movie was directed by Sam Raimi and cost the studios $258 million. This is likely due to all of the stunts and the amazing set that this movie featured.
