After trying to get the movie made for years, Coppola famously self-financed "Megalopolis," which reportedly came with a budget of at least $120 million. It was a star-studded affair led by Adam Driver ("Star Wars: The Force Awakens"), with Lionsgate releasing the final product in theaters. It didn't go well.
