If Scarlett's getting $20 million, I can't even imagine what RDJ and the guys will get. $30 million+? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm pretty positive that Julia Roberts and Cameron Diaz have both received that sum before, and probably a couple more ladies. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The article says Angelina Jolie has the standing record at 19m. But I agree, I thought Julia Roberts was getting that much in her hey dey.

baumer Posted July 9, 2012 Share Posted July 9, 2012 This goes back to the article that telemachos posted. I don't buy that they would offer her that kind of money. There is no need. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lab276 Posted July 9, 2012 Share Posted July 9, 2012 This goes back to the article that telemachos posted. I don't buy that they would offer her that kind of money. There is no need.I know right? How unreasonable would an actor have to be that the only way they'd come back is if they got $20m out of it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Plain Old Tele Posted July 9, 2012 Share Posted July 9, 2012 No chance in hell she actually gets paid $20m. Side letters ftw! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
baumer Posted July 9, 2012 Share Posted July 9, 2012 is what telemachos posted. This seems like a likely scenario.If Scarjo got paid 2 mill for Avengers, and that seems right because I think I remember reading that Evans and Ruffalo were paid that, then a bump to 5 mill would be more than sufficient. And Marvel is notoriously cheap with their actors. Rourke got 500,000K to do IM2 and I don't think Cheadle got much either. So 20 mill for her for TA2...BULLSHIT. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bumblebee Posted July 9, 2012 Share Posted July 9, 2012 I can see that after being paid relatively low for their multiple film deals and reports that Marvel played serious hardball, that the main actors are all trying to get serious raises in the wake of TA fantastic success. However I don't think BW is worth $20m, for the amount of screentime etc. And if she gets $20m then what are the rest getting? Way to add over $100-200m on your budget without even trying.

Cedarpoint1111 Posted July 9, 2012 Share Posted July 9, 2012 First of all, no 20m isn't record breaking. Plenty of women have made that much from one film.Second of all, NO WAY IN HELL. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
riczhang Posted July 9, 2012 Share Posted July 9, 2012 Angelina Jolie also received 20M to do Salt.But she headlined the film, and was the star. Plus, Jolie's fame >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>Scarlet's Fame. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cozmeesah Posted July 9, 2012 Share Posted July 9, 2012 Yep.I distinctly remember a slew of articles about Diaz joining Julia in the $20m club when she signed on for Charlie's Angels 2. So someone is smoking something good on this whole thing. Wrong info all around. "NOT A RECORD" (ha) and no way is she making that much for TA2.

cozmeesah Posted July 9, 2012 Share Posted July 9, 2012 But she headlined the film, and was the star. Plus, Jolie's fame >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>Scarlet's Fame.He was just pointing out that Angelina was one of 3-4 other women who have already made $20m for one picture. Hence the "record-breaking" part being bogus. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
