Best Answer

The officially released figure is $44,000,000 US. That equals about $330,000,000 US in 2012 dollars. Elizabeth's salary after her % of the gross, overtime, and expenses came to approximately $7,500,000 or $56,250,000 in 2012 dollars. The US gross is listed at $57,777,778 with an unknown international gross. During Cleopatra's initial release, it grossed a little over $26,000,000 making it the highest grossing film of 1963, giving the movie the dubious distinction of being the highest grossing film of the year while it still lost money.
