“The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power” is the biggest bet he’s ever made Amazon Prime Video. The production has the challenge of living up to Peter Jackson’s trilogy, but also the pressure of being the most expensive series ever made.
Its premiere on the streaming platform is giving people something to talk about on social networks due to its impressive story, but fans do not stop wondering: how much did it cost to make the program?
New Zealand Tourism and Economic Development Minister Stuart Nash revealed that “The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power” required spending $465 million. “It will be the biggest series ever made”, he emphasized and it became a reality.
If we take into account that the first season has a total of eight chapters, we can say that each one would have a value of 58.1 million dollars.
The high budget of fiction surpassed all known ones. Next, we share with you the other productions that barely approached him and how much each episode cost them.
- The fourth season of “Stranger things” was worth 30 million dollars per episode.
- The series “House of the dragon” – 20 million dollars per episode.
