So you mean the entire Pirate of the 'rib franchise mans wasnt acting he was ACTUALLY offfffffffffffff

He got to drink up, dress as a pirate, and film five movies on beautiful exotic beaches and islands around the globe while doing an impression of his good friend, Keith Richards. Johnny Depp was living that life.

White privilege list

 

[TheGodling]

All of the actors listed got paid based on their box office draw.

Those actors get sought out and have the luxury of picking or turning downs roles.


I’m surprised Bruce Willis wasn’t on that list

More like the other way around, most were deals to get paid a percentage of the box office profits.

It's not specifically mentioned in every bit but Keanu Reeves, Tom Cruise and Robert Downey Jr all got a percentage of box office earnings as well (on top of high standard fees) for their franchises. That is where the big money is for actors (if a film becomes a hit of course).

but studios always look at the box office draw of an actor when picking roles.


And I’m still surprised Bruce Willis didn’t get a percentage off the die hard franchise.

 

[It is a mystery]

Will made nine figures off one flick and nikkas think he's worried about a fukking August Alsina

Will could have been Neo, Dom, and Django if he wasn't so pre-occupied with not fukking his own wife. He would be beyond goated in every era along with those movies but I guess he was just too busy having August and Jada get it on.

Breh beat the game with all the achievements but went out of his way to not get the high score. Will won but STILL somehow lost

Will really turned down, not one, not two, but THREE iconic movie roles that would’ve earned him GOAT status, half a billy and possibly an Oscar??

cameron diaz got 40 mill for bad teacher? damn. someone has to be pissed about that

Hollywood has been trying to throw the bag at her to lure her out of retirement, but she seems to be content with where she is now. Bad Teacher was a box office hit at the time, so I can see why she made the money from it that she did.

Probably the worst part, but giving Johnny Depp's eccentricities he probably didn't feel to out of the norm.
