After more than three years, season four of The Witcher finally drops on Netflix today – and it’s back in truly epic fashion. With a new leading man and a production scale to rival any blockbuster, the fantasy juggernaut’s fourth season reportedly cost an eye-watering $27.6 million (£22 million) per episode. Across eight instalments, that’s a total of around $221 million (£175 million) – making this season one of the most expensive ever made.
As The Witcher once again pushes the boundaries of big-budget television, we’re taking a look at the other shows that have matched – or completely blown past – its colossal price tag. Cast your guesses as to who takes the top spot now…
