15 of the Films With the Biggest Cast and Crew of All Time
It's not uncommon for a large movie production to hire a crew in the hundreds, but the films on this list bring a new meaning to "it takes a village"—the number of people it took to make them surpasses the population of some villages, towns, and even cities. Here is a list of 15 films with cast and crews that exceeded 1,000 people. The films on this list span across countries, decades, and genres. Some hit the 1,000 mark as a result of massive visual effects teams, hordes of extras, carpenters engaged in endless on-set building, or a more balanced distribution across departments. But to be made, they all required at least 1,000 workers (and in most cases more) ranging from day players to directors.
