Being Spider-Man was basically Tom Holland’s destiny!

Observing an MCU film can cause you to believe that everything is probable to happen, and some of the performers and directors have demonstrated this in their own lives.

Many people have had their biggest Marvel dreams come true thanks to a combination of serendipity, manifestation, and plain hard effort.

Below are 21 celebrities whose Marvel fantasies are realized:

Warning: Spoilers ahead!

1. Ryan Reynolds initially appeared in the Deadpool comics in 2004. In a subsequent issue, the character described his unmasked face as “Ryan Reynolds crossed with a shar-pei,” prompting the actor to express interest in playing him in a film.

Reynolds drew the attention of 20th Century Fox, but the character was introduced in X-Men Origins: Wolverine rather than a standalone feature. As a result, he hand-selected writers Rhett Reese and Paul Wernick, as well as director Tim Miller, to ensure that Deadpool stayed true to the original material.

After four years of development hell, leaked test footage encouraged fans to advocate for the film’s full release. Deadpool was ultimately released in theaters in 2016.

2. At the age of 13, Xóchitl Gómez considered herself too young to play America Chavez, who was supposed to be around the age of 18. She submitted her audition tape despite her fears that Marvel would reject her.

Michael Waldron, scriptwriter for Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness, was reimagining the character as a young teen rather than a young adult, so Gómez got a call back only a few months later.

That led to Gómez tried hard stunt traning several hours a day, so that “if [she] potentially got a test audition, [she] could blow their minds.” Marvel eventually flew her to London for a screen test, and she was cast a few days later.

3. In 2020, John Krasinski was asked by Comicbook.com: “I know you can’t answer if you’re going to play Mister Fantastic, but you have to play Mister Fantastic, right?”

Krasinski said it was “the best question-answer ever.” He added, “I think to be a part of the Marvel world would be amazing anyway, and the fact that people would even consider me for that level of a part would be amazing. I genuinely have had no conversations or don’t know anything that’s happening with that.”

2 years later, in Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness, Krasinski made an astonishing cameo as Reed Richards/Mister Fantastic from a parallel universe.

4. Samuel L. Jackson was a great Marvel fan who would buy an entire box of comic books from his local comic store on a daily basis. As a result, when The Ultimates writer Mark Millar modeled the rebooted Nick Fury after his favorite actor in 2002, Jackson took note.

21 Times Marvel Agreed5 -21 Times Marvel Agreed To Make A Celebrity’s Dream Come TrueSource: Sony / Marvel Studios / Via youtube.com

Jackson told his agents to contact Marvel, who excused for utilizing his likeness without his consent and pledged to cast him as Nick Fury in any future movie adaptations.

Marvel started launching the Iron Man project a couple of years later, and director Jon Favreau included Nick Fury’s post-credits scene as an Easter egg. The sequence, of course, spawned the Avengers series, which has kept Jackson in the role since 2008.

5. Elizabeth Olsen shared during an interview with Screen Rant during the Avengers: Age of Ultron press tour that she’d want to see a future for Wanda Maximoff based on the House of M plot from the comics.

21 Times Marvel Agreed6 -21 Times Marvel Agreed To Make A Celebrity’s Dream Come TrueSource: Marvel Studios / Disney+ / Via youtube.com

Olsen said, “If she could have two fake babies and everyone tell her that they don’t really exist, and then her just go nuts, that would be unbelievable, but I don’t think they’re gonna do that. It might be a little too dark for the Marvel universe.”

Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness, released seven years later, followed the precise narrative stated by Olsen.

6. Wanda’s future was once again altered in 2018 when Elizabeth Olsen told Elle that she wanted to adjust the neckline on her character’s costume so “it would just not be a cleavage corset.”

Her new Scarlet Witch outfit arrived in the WandaVision finale three years later, and she took part in remodeling it.

“She knows what she has to do better than anybody, having done this for years now,” director Matt Shakman shared in an interview with Entertainment Tonight. “It’s one thing to look amazing. It’s another thing to actually function.”

7. When Marvel announced that a Shang-Chi film was in the works in 2018, Simu Liu tweeted at them about the possibility of playing the protagonist.

21 Times Marvel Agreed9 -21 Times Marvel Agreed To Make A Celebrity’s Dream Come TrueSource: Marvel Studios / Via youtube.com

Although Marvel’s higher-ups were unaware of the tweet, casting supervisor Sarah Finn told the Hollywood Reporter that Liu underwent “a long and arduous audition process, and he completely nailed every audition.”

At San Diego Comic-Con in 2019, Marvel revealed Liu as Shang-Chi. He made his MCU debut two years later in Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings.

8. Andrew Garfield would practice Tobey Maguire’s lines from Spider-Man (2002) in the mirror while studying acting at the University of London.

21 Times Marvel Agreed10 -21 Times Marvel Agreed To Make A Celebrity’s Dream Come TrueSource: Sony Pictures Entertainment / Via youtube.com

Garfield admitted on The Graham Norton show, “I was very high at the time.”

21 Times Marvel Agreed11 -21 Times Marvel Agreed To Make A Celebrity’s Dream Come TrueSource: Sony / Marvel Studios / Via youtube.com

In The Amazing Spider-Man, Garfield portrayed a fresh Peter Parker (2012). Then, in Spider-Man: No Way Home, he appeared alongside Maguire, whom he refers to as “my Spider-Man” (2021).

9. Director Jon Watts was eager to produce a coming-of-age picture after making two low-budget films. When Marvel asked him in for a meeting after being impressed with his movie Cop Car, he “took all of the ideas [he] had been working on and kind of projected them” onto the studio’s possible Spider-Man relaunch.

21 Times Marvel Agreed12 -21 Times Marvel Agreed To Make A Celebrity’s Dream Come TrueSource: Steve Granitz / FilmMagic / Via Getty

Watts, at first, didn’t believe he would be hired, but he kept on “bothering” Marvel and Sony executives. Because he “thought it was going to be really good practice for pitching to big studios,” he gave them a mood reel and numerous storyboarded sections.

Finally, he was hired to direct Spider-Man: Homecoming and remained for the remainder of the trilogy. He explained to Den of Geek, “I haven’t gone back and watched that thing that I made, but I think it’s pretty close. I was really clear upfront about how I saw the movie. And everyone was on board, so I feel like we captured that tone.”

10. Tom Holland remarked in a 2013 red carpet interview that he’d like to portray Spider-Man “in 10 years’ time.”

21 Times Marvel Agreed13 -21 Times Marvel Agreed To Make A Celebrity’s Dream Come TrueSource: Sony / Marvel Studios / Via youtube.com

However, he found himself in a seven-month audition procedure for the job within just a couple years. He had a successful screen test with Robert Downey Jr. when it was down to him and six other performers, and then he “rang [his] mum afterward and was like, ‘I think I’ve got it.'”

21 Times Marvel Agreed14 -21 Times Marvel Agreed To Make A Celebrity’s Dream Come TrueSource: Marvel Studios / Via youtube.com

He and another actor came to Atlanta six weeks later for a screen test with Chris Evans. He didn’t realize he’d earned the part until he saw the news on the internet.

Holland shared with Variety, “I got my computer…I type in ‘Marvel.’ I’ve still got the article saved on my computer. It said, ‘We would like to introduce our new Spider-Man, Tom Holland.’ I broke my computer, because I flipped it up in the air.”

11. Scarlett Johansson had a meeting with Jon Favreau and Kevin Feige one year prior to the pre-launch of Iron Man 2, to talk about possible Marvel parts for her, Black Widow, for example.

21 Times Marvel Agreed15 -21 Times Marvel Agreed To Make A Celebrity’s Dream Come TrueSource: Marvel Studios / Via youtube.com

Before her next meeting with Favreau, she allegedly dyed her hair red to help persuade him that she fit the part. She also stated to him, “If this doesn’t work out, I’m an actor for hire, so call me anytime.”

Favreau intitially cast Emily Blunt for the role. When she was unable to accept the role due to a scheduling difficulty, he contacted Johansson, who later said to Parade, “I’ve basically made a career out of being second choice.”

12. Vincent D’Onofrio was not prepared to bid farewell to Wilson Fisk when Netflix stopped Daredevil. According to Screen Rant, he said, “I so badly want to play that character again. I love that character. I just have to wait for Marvel to ask me.”

He also supported a fan-created campaign to make Daredevil return.

21 Times Marvel Agreed16 -21 Times Marvel Agreed To Make A Celebrity’s Dream Come TrueSource: Netflix / Marvel Studios / Via youtube.com

When Kevin Feige determined that Kingpin would be the most suitable villain for Hawkeye on Disney+, D’Onofrio ultimately had the opportunity to reprise his role.

Variety just revealed that Disney+ is developing a new Daredevil series. However, Marvel has yet to make any official announcements about the show, so we’ll have to wait and see if D’Onofrio makes another cameo (in a flashback or otherwise).

13. Monica Rambeau was first introduced to Teyonah Parris when fans began dream-casting her in the role on Twitter. She explained to the A.V. Club, “That initially piqued my interest.”

21 Times Marvel Agreed17 -21 Times Marvel Agreed To Make A Celebrity’s Dream Come TrueSource: Marvel Studios / Disney+ / Via youtube.com

She mentioned in the WandaVision episode of Marvel Studios Assembled that she asked her agency if she could be hired in a secret Marvel role some years down the road, “What if it’s Monica Rambeau?”

Parris shared in an interview with Entertainment Weekly, “I feel so special and honored to be able to walk in her shoes and bring her story to life. I hope that me playing this character (a) gives a group of people who are underrepresented a chance to see themselves, and (b) seeing my face and my Black body helps them engage with Black women and our humanity.”

14. Elsa Pataky felt a connection to the Thor legend when she was 15, so she had his emblem tattooed on her arm. Vogue Australia quoted her as saying, “The legend he had was so beautiful and I wanted to keep it.”

21 Times Marvel Agreed18 -21 Times Marvel Agreed To Make A Celebrity’s Dream Come TrueSource: David Livingston / Getty Images

Pataky met and got married to Chris Hemsworth in 2010, who was cast as Thor 1 year later.

21 Times Marvel Agreed19 -21 Times Marvel Agreed To Make A Celebrity’s Dream Come TrueSource: Marvel Studios / Via youtube.com

Pataky was cast as a stand-in for for a kiss scene in Thor: The Dark World, bringing her extraordinary bond with the god of thunder to the big screen.

15. Chris Hemsworth is 6’3″ tall “, therefore when he wanted to apply for a role that he was “totally wrong for, physically”, he would lie and say he was shorter, but that completely changed with Thor. Hemsworth shared with Radio Times, “The brief for the audition for Thor said: must be over 6’1″, which I’d never seen before!”

21 Times Marvel Agreed20 -21 Times Marvel Agreed To Make A Celebrity’s Dream Come TrueSource: Charley Gallay / Getty Images for Disney

He thought his initial audition with director Kenneth Branagh went well, but he never received a response – while his younger brother Liam got a lot further in the process!

Chris was both frustrated and inspired by Liam’s achievement, and he decided to give it another attempt. According to W Magazine, “My manager called them up and said, ‘You know, [Liam]’s got an older brother. Can we bring him back in?'”

21 Times Marvel Agreed21 -21 Times Marvel Agreed To Make A Celebrity’s Dream Come TrueSource: Marvel Studios / Via youtube.com

“It’s a little family, sibling rivalry sort of kicked up in me. Then it moved pretty quick from there. It was cool,” Chris added.

16. When Taika Waititi was first approached about directing Thor: Ragnarok, he made his own sizzle reel, which had snippets from other films paired to Led Zeppelin’s “Immigrant Song.”

21 Times Marvel Agreed22 -21 Times Marvel Agreed To Make A Celebrity’s Dream Come TrueSource: Gregg Deguire / FilmMagic / Via Getty

Feige agreed right away that the song would be excellent for the soundtrack, but Led Zeppelin is infamous for refusing to allow their songs to be utilized in films.

When music supervisor Dave Jordan eventually secured the go-ahead to utilize “Immigrant Song” in a teaser trailer as well as the film itself, the movie was virtually finished.

21 Times Marvel Agreed23 -21 Times Marvel Agreed To Make A Celebrity’s Dream Come TrueSource: Gab Archive / Redferns / Via Getty

“When we had the first cut of the trailer and showed Led Zep, they understood how perfect the song was for this character. I think it wouldn’t have happened if we didn’t start the conversation with them really, really early on,” Waititi said in an interview with Business Insider.

17. After Creed, director Ryan Coogler pondered what type of movie he wanted to make next., he “was grappling with something [he’d] kind of been scraping at [his] whole life, which is [his] cultural identity, and what it means to be African.” After the shoot, he intended to fly to Africa.

21 Times Marvel Agreed24 -21 Times Marvel Agreed To Make A Celebrity’s Dream Come TrueSource: Alberto E. Rodriguez / Getty Images for Disney

Then Marvel contacted, and his pitch for Black Panther was informed by those concepts. According to Rolling Stone, he said, “I was very honest about the idea I wanted to explore in this film, which is what it means to be African. That was one of the first things I talked about. And they were completely interested.”

As a result, he traveled across Africa, from Cape Town to Lesotho to Kenya. His encounters with people and the locations he visited “informed as much about the movie as any of [Marvel’s] comics.”

18. Jon Favreau lobbied for the role of Tony Stark in Iron Man to be cast by Robert Downey Jr., but Marvel said to him, “under no circumstances are we prepared to hire him for any price.”

21 Times Marvel Agreed26 -21 Times Marvel Agreed To Make A Celebrity’s Dream Come TrueSource: Paramount/Marvel Studios/Courtesy Everett Collection

Downey reacted to Favreau’s bad news by saying, “With your permission, I’m going to hold out hope”, and it prompted the filmmaker to defend him one again.

21 Times Marvel Agreed27 -21 Times Marvel Agreed To Make A Celebrity’s Dream Come TrueSource: Marvel Studios / Via youtube.com

Favreau was able to bring Downey a second screen test, and he got the role. For the next 11 years, he was Iron Man.

19. Sam Rockwell was also considered for the role of Tony Stark, but he didn’t make it through the screen tests.

21 Times Marvel Agreed28 -21 Times Marvel Agreed To Make A Celebrity’s Dream Come TrueSource: Bruce Glikas / Bruce Glikas / WireImage for American Buffalo / Via Getty

However, for Iron Man 2, Favreau reintroduced him to the MCU, casting him as the villain Justin Hammer. He explained to the A.V. Club, “In a way, I think Jon was basically saying, ‘This is your chance to be Tony Stark. This will be your version of Tony Stark.'”

21 Times Marvel Agreed29 -21 Times Marvel Agreed To Make A Celebrity’s Dream Come TrueSource: Marvel Studios / Via youtube.com

Rockwell added, “We gave [Hammer] the glasses and kind of sleazed him up a little. But that’s exactly right. It was a chance to do Tony Stark.”

20. In 2013, Barry Keoghan used Twitter to request that Stan Lee give a superhero role for him.

21 Times Marvel Agreed30 -21 Times Marvel Agreed To Make A Celebrity’s Dream Come TrueSource: Marvel Studios / Via youtube.com

His wish came true six years later when he was cast as Druig in Eternals, and he celebrated on Twitter.

“There aren’t a lot of opportunities where I’m from [Summerhill, Dublin]. To see a lad from a working-class area on screen — it’ll give kids that chance, not only in acting but in other things to go, ‘He’s up there doing a superhero movie, maybe I could do this, maybe I could do that.’ So I hope that comes across,” he said in an interview with CNET.

21. Finally, when Marvel originally approached Brian Tyree Henry about playing Phastos in Eternals, he inquired about how much weight he’d have to shed, to which director Chloé Zhao replied, “What are you talking about? We want you exactly as you are.”

21 Times Marvel Agreed31 -21 Times Marvel Agreed To Make A Celebrity’s Dream Come TrueSource: Marvel Studios / Via youtube.com

Henry shared with Variety, “It just triggered me to be an 11-year-old kid who is watching these superhero movies, and not ever seeing anyone like me reflected.”

“I would take these posters and put them in my locker, and just hope that one day there will be somebody representing me in the way you know that I am,” he added.

9123 -10 Famous People Who Choose To Live Quiet And Humble Lives When They Leave The Spotlights

When people achieve a certain degree of success, you almost expect them to change. With so much money and attention, it’s easy to fall into the pitfalls of arrogance and obnoxiousness. However, while there are lots of stuck-up celebs, there are also those who haven’t let fame go to their heads.

“Wealth and success don’t make you happy,” Leonardo DiCaprio once said. Perhaps as a result of this way of thinking, many people who work in the entertainment industry maintain a low-key lifestyle after their workday is done.

These people have succeeded in remaining grounded in an industry that tries to force them otherwise. They really understand what is truly important in life, whether it be giving money to charity, spending time with fans, or just being a good person. Millions of people from all over the world now love and appreciate them as a result. Here are 10 famous people who, when not in the spotlight, choose to lead quiet, modest lives.

#1 Angelina Jolie

#2 Cameron Diaz

#3 Halle Berry

Halle Berry is another celebrity who loves to live a simple life. She’s occasionally seen doing grocery shopping sans makeup and looking like an ordinary person.

Halle practices self-care and fitness to live a healthy lifestyle and inspire other women to do the same: “I got diagnosed with diabetes and I quickly learned that I could control my diabetes and live a longer, healthier life if I exercised regularly, changed my diet, and did some things in my life that are called de-stressors.”

Justin Bieber chose to prioritize his family life over his career. “I am now very focused on repairing some of the deep-rooted issues that I have as most of us have so that I don’t fall apart so that I can sustain my marriage and be the father I want to be,” he wrote in an Instagram post. He tries to keep his promise and spends a lot of time with Hailey.

From 2010 to 2016, Leonardo DiCaprio was on Forbes’ annual list of highest-paid actors. He seems to be able to buy gold toilets and a new mansion every month. Instead, he opts for a normal life. For example, he was seen giving instructions to a lost tourist on a rainy day in Manhattan.

Furthermore, DiCaprio understands the needs of the poor and gives his money to the world. His foundation will donate $3 million to Australia’s bushfire recovery efforts in 2020.

#7 Mariah Carey

Commuting by subway is something that all of us who have to go to work or school do daily. But singer Mariah Carey thought there was no reason for her not to participate as well. She also took the subway since she wanted to be a part of this experience. But, of course, she did it her way, always looking dazzling and dressed as if she were preparing to perform. Yes, she took the subway in a gala gown in New York City, and she even captured the moment with a humorous story that she then posted on Instagram.

#8 Reese Witherspoon

Despite her amazingly successful career, the lead actress of Legally Blonde (2001) may easily demonstrate that she is a normal caring mother. She used to take her children, Ava and Deacon, to the park and babysit them while they played on the playground, just like any other non-celebrity mom. They’d then have a picnic and a couple of delicious slices of pizza.

#9 Shailene Woodley

Shailene Woodley is a famous actress, environmentalist, and climate advocate. Her mother and she co-founded a non-profit organization that teaches young people empathy, compassion, and responsibility.

Woodley stays grounded and unspoiled. “I go outside whether I’m in the city or backwoods of any state. I connect with the ground, the trees, just breathing fresh air while I go for a walk and I find myself living in my heart instead of in my mind,”  she says. Woodley prefers natural products and makeup and tries to live a natural life.

#10 Tobey Maguire

9114 -8 Non-Disney Cartoons That Promise Remarkable Live-Action Or Cgi Remakes

We all are familiar with the live-action adaptation or CGI remakes of many Disney cartoons. Some notable names are Cinderella, Beauty and the Beast, Alice in Wonderland, and the list goes on. Many animated films have regained the heat after the live-action or CGI versions hit theaters. Some mediocre cartoons even have a chance to reach the top rank if the remakes are successful. Of course, besides Disney productions, cartoons from other studios are also considered to be put on the big screen, and here are 8 of them.

Scroll down to see if your favorite one has its name on the list!

#1 The Last Unicorn (1982)

Topcraft’s animation is the journey of the last eternal unicorn to find other members of her kind. The team of the unicorn, a bumbling magician, and a bandit’s wife sets off on a fascinating adventure and faces many dangers. On the way, the legendary creature learns many precious lessons about love and regret.

A weak point in the original version is the stiff and awkward character designs. However, it lays a strong foundation for a CGI mixed live-action remake.

Will Vinton introduced the enthralling works of the father of American literature to children through this stop-motion animation. The audience would follow Tom Sawyer and his friend to discover Mark Twain’s airship. They explored the place while watching and listening to Twain’s stories before they realized the ship was heading into Halley’s Comet.

As stop-motion has many limits, the film’s CGI remake seems to promise a much better version. The lively animation associated with the famous writer’s absorbing stories will make it a top-notch movie.

#3 Perfect Blue (1997)

Perfect Blue revolved around Mima Kirigoe, a J-pop idol-turned-actor. Mima intends to stick to her acting career, but a menace of a mysterious stalker and a series of peculiar murders around her mess up her plan.

This adult animated film could become a fascinating psychological thriller with an ideal cast as Mima and the right level of visual effects.

#4 We’re Back! A Dinosaur’s Story (1993)

With the time machine, a scientist decides to gift the children of the 20th century in New York City with sentimental dinosaurs brought from their natural habitats. 

We’re Back! A Dinosaur’s Story could be turned into a lovely live-action CGI hybrid film. Cinematic dinosaurs can’t be more real, and this lighthearted script will make dinosaurs’ images much better, at least compared to Jurassic Park. After all, people should be reminded that dinosaurs are more than monsters.

#5 Little Nemo: Adventures in Slumberland (1989)

Little Nemo is upset since his parents are too busy to take him to the circus. That night, he meets members of the circus in his dream, and they introduce him to King Morpheus, ruler of Slumberland. When Nemo sees the king, he was offered an opportunity to rule the kingdom and protect it from the Nightmare King.

A dreamland like Slumberland is a perfect place for creativity, and innovative animators know how to make the best use of it. Looking at similar movies like Inside Out and Soul will make you certain about the success of this film’s CGI remake.

#6 Animal Farm (1954)

The animated movie Animal Farm was adapted from George Orwell’s famous novel of the same name. The story is about an animal farm that represents the rise of the Soviet Union. Under the Old Major the boar’s leadership, the animals of Manor Farm chase away the farmer to gain independence. However, the utopia turns out a nightmare for the animals under the dominance of Major’s successors.

Andy Serkis is the director of the latest animated adaptation of the story. His talent combined with the assistance of CGI technology will likely guarantee a first-rate adaptation movie.

#7 Wizards (1977)

Written by Ralph Bakshi, the movie feature the fight between two wizard brothers over the governance of a post-apocalyptic Earth. The malicious brother, Blackwolf, uses a projector with Nazi propaganda to provoke his troop. To stop his evil plan, Avatar, his brother, with some weird companions decide to confront him.

The action flick doesn’t leave much impression on the viewers due to its old-fashioned and cheap-looking animation. The battle could be more exciting and absorbing with more detailed character designs in the CGI remake.

#8 Cats Don’t Dance (1997)

Live Action Animation 7 -8 Non-Disney Cartoons That Promise Remarkable Live-Action Or Cgi RemakesSource: Apple TV

The young cat Danny is ambitious about becoming a renowned Hollywood actor. However, he gradually realized that animal actors only play cameo roles while humans take charge of all the main parts. Instead of giving up, he and his fellow actors are determined to prove their capability and get what they deserve.

Though the animation Cats Don’t Dance failed hard, the meaningful premise should be brought back to the screen. Having been successful with Space Jam: A New Legacy, Warner Brothers can definitely handle a new version with CGI models of Cats Don’t Dance.

9110 -12 Low-Budget Films That Made Eye-Popping Revenue At The Box Office

There’s no denying that movies are more costly than ever. It’s not rare for a production company to invest hundreds of millions ( even billions) in filmmaking. As long as you have the right actor, director, or intellectual property, you may be able to recoup your huge investment. But what about ambitious directors who can’t afford to make a film about your favorite superhero or cast any big-name actors? The independent market is for directors with a limited budget. Low investment, low return.

However, there are certain exceptions: when a low-budget film outperforms expectations. This unusual event can launch unknown actors to stardom and first-time directors to legends. You may be familiar with some breakout independent films, but you’d be shocked how many of your favorite films had a far lower budget than you expected.

To clarify, this list isn’t rated only by the lowest budget, but rather by how successful the films were given the budget they had to deal with. So, without further ado, here are 12 low-budget films that went on to become box office hits.

#1 A Nightmare on Elm Street

  • Box Office: $57,000,000

Before New Line Cinema agreed to produce the story of Freddy Krueger, which was rejected by many businesses. However, the studio had financial difficulties throughout filming. The cast and crew worked for two weeks without pay. The company was successful in attracting investors and achieving its first commercial success.

#2 Blue Valentine

  • Budget: $1,000,000
  • Box Office: $16,600,000

Many years passed between the time the script was written and the film’s release. The director wanted to shoot the characters at different ages, but due to financial limitations, this was not possible. He also waived his fees to help finance the film. But it all paid off when the film became a smashing blockbuster.

#3 Boyhood

  • Budget: $4,000,000
  • Box Office: $57,300,000

It took 12 years to complete this film. The director updated the script every year, and the actors based their characters on real-life examples. The crew met 1-2 times every year for 3-4 days of filming. Despite the risks, the producers supported the extended production, which resulted in some extremely cool effects.

#4 Dirty Dancing

#5 Insidious

  • Box Office: $99,500,000

The creators of the Saw film franchise made this film. Again, a minimal budget did not prevent the crew from making a picture in three weeks and recouping expenses up to 66 times over, since the film grossed almost $100 million.

#6 Lock, Stock, and Two Smoking Barrels

#9 Pulp Fiction

#12 The Terminator
