Although the movie doesn't have any pricey actors starring in it, the budget might go high because of the CGI and other details.

Similarly, before the big superhero franchises took over, Tobey Maguire’s Spider-Man movies were ruling the box office. The third installment of Sony’s web-slinger had a budget of $258 million.
What does the movie bring forth, only time will tell. The movie Superman: Legacy recently was subjected to a title change, now James Gunn is calling it just Superman.
