16 of the highest paid movie roles of all time — including $100 million for a single film

You really gotta love acting to continue working after making 50 M's for one movie. Even after taxes, I would probably stop working and be a beach bum

Nah. It doset work like that for most people. They actually start to hate acting but need the money to keep coming in. Back taxes, yachts, jets, mansions,jewelry,ect
You start to have access to more expensive things, and you start hanging out with other rich people and then you have to keep up with everything.

Yeah they spend their money and gotta keep it coming in. Except a cat like Keanu Reeves, I bet he has a lot of his cash --- he just finds peace in doing action movies it seems like.

I read that Marlon Brando made a groundbreaking $8 million (plus a percentage of the back end profits) to play Jor-El in Superman for about 10 minutes.

 

[x-factor7]

Damn, if you're an actor in a franchise, you might as well just take a percentage of the profits deal, you clean up quite nice

tom hanks the GOAT deserves every penny for gump and SPR.

reeves making $250 mill is crazy but matrix 1 is one of my favorite movies of all time so it was money well spent.

 

[QuintessentialMan]

Its amazing how me manages to always be in iconic action movies,not dramas or biopics but Action movies

Some people only know him from the matrix
Some people only know him from Bill and Ted(They making a 3rd one soon)
Some people only know him from John Wick

And then there is Speed(Classic!), Point Break(Classic!) and Constantine(Pretty ok) and many many others that arent as popular but still good(Hardball, man of Taichi which he friggin directed,etc)

Dude just has it/
