The movie industry has seen its fair share of hits and misses, but some flops make a mark like no other. Just like this film made on a staggering budget of Rs 2162 crores, but ended up becoming the world’s biggest box office flop. Yes, you heard that right, this movie left the makers in shock and empty-handed. Let’s dive into what went wrong and how this colossal failure shook the industry.

One of the Most Expensive Films 

This movie is one of the most expensive films ever made in the film industry. Not only this in exchange of applause, the movie received the title of one of the worst marketing campaigns in movie history. This science fiction action-adventure film made the makers cry after pouring money like water. But after the release, the movie failed to make an impact on the audience. 

Who Directed This Movie? 

This adventurous movie runs for 2 hours and 12 minutes, directed by Andrew Stanton. It follows John Carter’s first interplanetary journey as he navigates the war-torn kingdoms of Barsoom and attempts to bring peace and mediate their ongoing conflicts. This resulted in the audience leaving their seats in theaters. 

Which Movie is the Biggest Flop? 


This high-budget movie of $250 million, i.e., Rs 2162 crore is ‘John Carter’, which is based on the novels of A Princess of Mars. The film earned $73 million, i.e., 631 crores only at the domestic box office, which made it a loss for the makers of the film. 

Iconic Starcast of John Carter 

John Carter has a high-ranking star cast, including Taylor Kitsch in the lead role alongside Lynn Collins, Samantha Morton, Mark Strong, Ciarán Hinds, Dominic West, James Purefoy, and Willem Dafoe. 

Biggest Flop Movie in the Guinness Book of World Records

The Guinness Book of World Records listed John Carter as the biggest flop film, joining the other the list of other flops like The 13th Warrior, Green Lantern, and The Invasion. Due to its box office performance, Disney canceled other installments of this movie, Gods of Mars and Warlord of Mars.
