Making The Revenant Was an Absolute Nightmare

Making The Revenant was a total nightmare. Behind the scenes, it was a rollercoaster of challenges and hardships. Iñárritu, known for hits like Birdman and Amores Perros, stepped up his game with this one.

After his success with Birdman, where he basically made the whole movie look like one long shot, Iñárritu took on the crazy task of bringing The Revenant to life. It was a wild ride, from filming in crazy remote spots to dealing with a huge budget and a never-ending shooting schedule.

Looking back, it’s kind of a miracle they even finished the darn thing, let alone made it a huge success. Despite all the chaos, The Revenant raked in over $532 million worldwide. And let’s not forget the Oscars it snagged for Best Director, Best Actor, and Best Cinematography.
