Avengers: Doomsday is undeniably set to be one of the biggest movies of all time, and like all previous Avengers films it's also going to cost the GDP of a small country to produce.

With the last two Avengers films, Infinity War and Endgame, costing roughly $500 million a piece when it was all said and done, it's naturally expected that Doomsday will at least match or surpass that figure.

While we don't have an official price tag yet, we do know that the Russo brothers will receive $40 million to direct the film while Robert Downey Jr. will net $50 million for his role as Doctor Doom.

That's almost 20% of a $500 million budget down before we even consider other lead veteran cast members, namely Chris Hemsworth, nor the literally dozens of familiar faces who will be showing up in some capacity.

And so, it's easy to see how Doomsday could easily end up costing considerably north of half a billion - a risky prospect given the rather underwhelming commercial performance of the MCU as of late.
