Can you figure out which rock song is by far the most costly to use in a film? The answer has previously surfaced, though one TikTok user just brought it up once more to emphasize how much it costs to use the famous rock song in a film.
Any ideas? It is still considered a trademark song by one of hard rock’s most successful bands. And, well, let’s just say it’s thundering. Influencer Daniel Wall (@danielswall) demonstrated on TikTok its application in a variety of Blockbusters and superhero movies.
Watch video at the bottom.
“What is the most expensive song to include in a movie?” Wall asks in the clip he shared on the social app last December. “This song was in movies like Deadpool 2 [2017], Battleship [2012] and Thor: Ragnarok [2017].”
He continues, “We’re talking about ‘Thunderstruck‘ by AC/DC. Keep in mind that sync fees are usually anywhere between $15,000 and $60,000. So how much does this song cost to put in your movie? Half a million dollars [$500,000]”
