Yea, but 70 mil?!?!? Come on now. Leo got 10 mil and didn't have to deal with CGI shyt.
this little dude thinks he is happy now, just wait until he is old enough to realize what mama does for a living.

That shiit made no sense to me either. The budget was $100 million but, one of the main actors only got paid $60,000

and you know those big wig studio execs laughing and be like
"okay guys. we have to at least pay for a limo to get Jonah to the red carpet instead of having him pay for his own cab ride. ahahahahaha that fool took 60 grand for this and we done made 339 mill!

Can yall nikkas please stop writing this over and over? We understand the logic behind his decision. It still doesn't absolve the studio from being greedy soulless muthafukkas. The studio heads may think Jonah Hill isn't a serious actor but, he's still relatively high profile to the movie going audience. People know who he is. $60,000 is disgusting. If they threw $300,000 to $400,000 at him, thats respectable, then you can say, "he took a paycut to better his career". $60,000 isn't a paycut. Its disrespectful as hell. Thats the salary you pay that nikka who starred in Napoleon Dynamite.

i get his predicament and his logic..
but they couldn't break him off at least 6 figures?
they gave him the LEGAL MINIMUM?
his agent must be
every time he accepts a serious role.
get your client a significant role in a scorcese movie to be paid and be paid 3,000

if Jonah was black (or gay), they could start a fuss over this.
pretty boy Leo, OG Marty, and the studio execs get paid tens of millions while fat boy gets paid like he working the graveyard shift at Wal-Mart.
(of course I'm just clowning)

when you're fat and unattractive thats what yo....ok ok that's mean 
nah but seriously, Jonah is a very intelligent jew. He knew it was an investment. Oscar nominee, Scorsese , DiCaprio, all under your belt in one film? you're pretty much GOLD after that. From here on out, his movies will all be 2 mill+ min. Plus the audience he got from that. How many people saw that compared to Super Bad? His face is now officially recognized.
That's what you call a smart ass investment. take note, sacrifice can be beneficial.
