From 'Tangled' to 'Titanic,' These are the Most Expensive Movies Ever Made

Solo: A Star Wars Story ($275 million)

This movie documents the lives of Han Solo, Chewbacca, and Lando Calrissian ten years before the events of A New Hope. This film passed through a few hands before it was written to the standards that Lucasfilms holds for Star Wars, and even though its writing started in 2012, it wasn’t released until later in 2018. Due to the constant delays, creative differences, shifts of hands, and constant changes, Solo became one of the most expensive films of all time. In addition to that, this was the lowest-performing Star Wars film of all time, grossing a mere $393 million worldwide before the end of its run.
