The Avengers: Endgame (2019)

Avengers: Endgame was arguably the biggest release of 2019. While Marvel movies are already notorious for costing a lot, this one certainly blew the rest out of the water; costing them hundreds of millions of dollars. Thanos required a lot of CGI work, and most of the superhero effects are also digitally created. The award-winning VFX studio Digital Domain had to use V-Ray in order to render an even better Thanos than the previous film. Apart from this, most of the superhero effects that were seen in the movie were also visually created. The makers had to spend a staggering $356 million on The Avengers: Endgame making it one of the most expensive Hollywood movies. However, it wasn’t a bad decision as the film was able to rake in almost $3 billion worldwide.
