Part 3/10:
Through meticulous analysis of financial reports filed in the UK—where production entities took advantage of attractive tax incentives—Forbes uncovered that the actual expenditure on these films was significantly higher than publicly admitted. Both Infinity War and Endgame were produced under the same UK-based company, Assembled Productions 3, which was structured to qualify for substantial film tax credits.
Key findings include:
The combined actual production costs for both films are approximately $1.3 billion USD.
The initial publicly reported budgets of $700 million were only a fraction of the true costs.
