Most Expensive Movies Ever Made

After ‘The Lone Ranger’ film starring Johnny Depp was shelved due to budget issues - having been pitched at over £154 million - we wanted to see which films cost the most to make.

Obviously inflation would have ruled a number of the old classics as cheap tat destined for the bargain bucket in a gutted Woolworths, so our boffins got to work on calculating some of the complex mathematical equations needed to find out the most expensive films of all time.

10 – King Kong / Spider-Man 2
Peter Jackson’s remake of the classic tale of a fictitious monster that looks an awful lot like a gorilla just sneaks into the top ten alongside Sam Raimi’s web slinger sequel. Costing just over £129 million and £124 million respectively, due to inflation rates since the films’ release dates that equates to more than a staggering £145 million to make each film. And this is just the beginning!

Ferris Bueller Stars Now and Then
Ferris Bueller's doe-eyed beau was played by Mia Sara. "Bueller" was only Sara's second movie after starring opposite Tom Cruise in "Legend." Since then, she's appeared in a number of TV movies and miniseries, crossing over occasionally into feature films, such as the 1994 Jean-Claude Van Damme sci-fi thriller "Timecop." Most recently, she can be seen as Princess Landwidere in "The Witches of Oz.

Stars who despised each other on set

When egotistical actors are cooped up together for months on end on a movie set there’s always going to be friction. On the whole though, lavish trailers and massive paychecks help smooth over any niggles. Yet sometimes the angst gets too much for these pampered princes and princesses. They may be actors, but even the most experienced stars can’t hide their genuine dislike of fellow performers. 

 
Harrison Ford and Josh Hartnett

The legendary Harrison Ford didn’t take too kindly to whippersnapper Josh Hartnett on the set of ‘Hollywood Homicide’. Ford reportedly referred to Harnett as a "punk", with the young actor retaliating by calling the veteran “an old fart”. As a result the pair barely made eye contact during filming and continuously picked on each other at press junkets. The film flopped.

10 Most Powerful Hollywood Actors

These are the most powerful actors of Hollywood to date who rule the industry by their extraordinary style and and extreme talent

 Johnny Depp

Whether he’s a mad hatter, a pirate or an animated chameleon, Depp’s presence in a movie guarantees a box office bump. Just look at Rango, an odd animated movie about a fish-out-of-water lizard. It grossed $240 million on an estimated budget of $135 million. His film The Tourist, in which he played an average fellow opposite Angelina Jolie, earned a healthy $280 million thanks in part to Depp’s international appeal. (Link)

18 movie stars who disappeared

They were on the path to stardom. The world was at their feet. Then they disappeared! We meet the movie stars that were, then weren't!

Hollywood is a fickle mistress. The road to superstardom is littered with her used-up conquests: child stars who never made it as adults, pin-ups who had the temerity to grow old or raise a family, boyish heroes who suddenly weren’t so boyish and side-splitting comics who found out the hard way just how fast comedy can date.

While Tinseltown is filled with performers who never made it to the big time, the strangest and saddest tales belong to those who hit the dizzy heights of  fame but could not, for whatever reason, hold on to it. What happened to them? Find out below.

After delving a little deeper we found that they are actually the real names of the hottest Hollywood stars. Here’s what we found:
