Francis Ford Coppola

“The Godfather” director Francis Ford Coppola is selling off several luxury watches from his personal collection, including one custom timepiece worth over $1 million, after losing most of his wealth financing his decades-long passion project, “Megalopolis.” The 86-year-old Oscar-winning filmmaker reportedly invested $120 million of his own fortune into making the epic science fiction movie, which only grossed $14.3 million at the worldwide box office after it was released in September 2024.
