fishstick Posted July 9, 2012 Share Posted July 9, 2012 I think this is a PR ploy not a real offer. Nobody is stupid to offer that kind of money to a supporting player who can easily be absent from the sequel and nobody would shed tears. She`s good but not essential and TA is ensamble piece with cast member who change in the comic books.Notice how this "offer" is timed close to release of TDKR considering that buzz is growing that Catwoman >>>>>>>> BW. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Accursed Arachnid!™ Posted July 9, 2012 Share Posted July 9, 2012 Hey Day. I mispelled it. You still misspelled it. (It's "heyday" all one word or it's "hey-day" but not "hey day" lol) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dementeleus Posted July 9, 2012 Share Posted July 9, 2012 I doubt Marvel's paying anyone $20m for TA or any other movie in development. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
baumer Posted July 9, 2012 Share Posted July 9, 2012 I doubt Marvel's paying anyone $20m for TA or any other movie in development.Especially since Downy took them for about 100 mill. lol 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lordmandeep Posted July 9, 2012 Share Posted July 9, 2012 Um Downey easily got 20 million for TA and likley could get a record haul for TA2. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CloneWars Posted July 10, 2012 Share Posted July 10, 2012 I doubt Marvel's paying anyone $20m for TA or any other movie in development.RDJ is the only one I can see getting that kind of money, but Marvel has publicly stated they have no problems recasting anyone if they ask for too much and we already saw that happen with War Machine. This probably a side letter scenario to boost ScarJo since TA is such a massive hit, but BW is easily replaceable either with a recast or another sexy female character which the Marvel Universe has in spades.

wileECoyote Posted July 10, 2012 Share Posted July 10, 2012 Heh I posted the same thing in the main Avengers thread. Looks like the original story is from The Sun in the UK. http://www.thesun.co.uk/sol/homepage/showbiz/4415563/Scarlett-Johansson-is-best-paid-actress-as-she-pockets-13million-to-star-in-Avengers-2.htmlThis was picked up by the NY Post both owned by News Corp by the way..And I guess this was posted on Huffington..which is definitely not owned by News Corp. Either way people said that The Sun was crap as far as a reliable source. Anyway 20M is way too extreme. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PDC1987 Posted July 10, 2012 Share Posted July 10, 2012 RDJ only jumped from $500,000 to $10 million from IM to IM2.There's no way she's jumping to twice that amount for her part in an ensemble sequel. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeeCee Posted July 10, 2012 Share Posted July 10, 2012 I thought Marvel had everyone signed up for multiple movies. Samuel L Jackson has a deal to appear as Nick Fury in 40 Marvel movies. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rockNrollaDIM Posted July 10, 2012 Share Posted July 10, 2012 LMAO. Yeah right. Marvel would re-cast the role before they paid SJ $20m for a bit part. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CloneWars Posted July 10, 2012 Share Posted July 10, 2012 He only got $500k for IM1??!? Is it cause of his previous personal problems?It probably had more to do with Iron Man being a B-list comic book character before IM1 made more than $300M. They were probably hoping for around half of what Iron Man made and were quite happy and it made much, much more. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wileECoyote Posted July 10, 2012 Share Posted July 10, 2012 Not when the movie has made almost 1.5 Billion dollars.. She was great in the movie.. She's worth every penny you pay her along with a fat pay increase for the rest of the Cast and Joss Whedon.. Well they will all probably get a nice bump in salary but $20M. You would have to wonder what Evans and Hemsworth would be asking for if she got that...probably percentages of the gross like RDJ?? I couldn't remember who posted it first. That was you! So it originally came from the Sun, picked up by NY pub, and then quoted by Huffington Post. Crazy. Haha yeah and the article says that the rest of the cast would get 50 percent pay raises!! Didn't RDJ reportedly make $50M from Avengers? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dementeleus Posted July 10, 2012 Share Posted July 10, 2012 I'd bet the majority of RDJ's payday comes from gross points, not paid up front. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ecstasy Posted July 10, 2012 Author Share Posted July 10, 2012 (edited) I'd bet the majority of RDJ's payday comes from gross points, not paid up front.Yes there was an article in the THR breaking down his potential 50m payday.
