Tom Cruise, Will Smith, Leonardo Dicaprio, Brad Pitt Y Dwayne Johnson It is the actors who charge the most per film. The first actress to appear on the list of Hollywood stars with eight-figure salaries is Margot Robbiebut far behind those already mentioned that, in the worst case, almost double the salary that the Australian will receive for being Barbie.

From Will Ferrell to Chris Hemsworth, passing through Joaquin Phoenix, what to do Joker 2 asked more than quadruple her salary for the original film, from Millie Bobby Brown.

Paradoxical is the case of Tom Cruise, because Top Gun Maverick reaches the unusual nine-figure figure (one hundred million dollars), but because that figure will be derived from the sale of tickets in theaters, which he perceives as a salary (he produces himself, so the negotiations must not have been difficult) and the sale of the film to the streaming service, which he despises so much.

This is Chris Hemsworth (about to be released rescue mission 2) and Millie Bobby Brown. The star of Another Netflix Tank, strange thingshe has already completed the second part of Enola Holmes.

So much money on the one hand makes it difficult for traditional Hollywood studios to get other figures to work on their projects if they don’t put eight figures on the table.
