Star Avengers: Endgame, Here's Payday Robert Downey Jr.
The success of Avengers: Endgame at the box office will add to the coffers of actor Tony Stark / Iron Man, Robert Downey Jr. A Forbes report said the actor would pocket no less than USD75 million (Rp1 trillion). Wow, fantastic numbers, right?
Quoted from Movie Web, Robert's initial contract for the Endgame movie was actually not too big. He was paid around USD20 million (Rp280 billion) as an initial payment to appear in the film. However, the pay then multiplied from the portion he got from the film's profits. Robert is called to have a share of 8% of the profits of the film.

Meanwhile, until now, Avengers: Endgame has grossed around USD2,773 billion (IDR38.8 trillion) from around the world. The film is likely to still reap more money from the re-release that is currently being done. Until now, Marvel is estimated to have made a profit of around USD700 million (Rp9.8 trillion). This means Robert has the right to get around USD55 million (Rp770 billion). If the number is added with the initial payment, then Robert also pocketed a total of USD75 million for only one film.
Robert helped start the Marvel Cinematic Universe which became one of the most profitable brands in the entertainment world. Robert started by playing Tony Stark in the first Iron Man film in 2008. Since then, he has become the face of the MCU and brought him to one of the biggest payments in the film franchise. This is certainly not a bad outcome for people who were once considered unemployed in Hollywood before getting the role of Tony Stark.
Not only Robert, many other actors acting as Marvel heroes also pocket big pay. Bradley Cooper for example. The actor who dubbed the Rocket Raccoon character has a share of 1% of the film's profit and will pocket around $ 7 million. Marvel is very well known not to pay their actors a large amount at the beginning, but their long-term agreement continues to rise over time.
Together, it is estimated that Chris Hemsworth (Thor), Paul Rudd (Ant-Man), Robert, Bradley, Scarlett Johansson (Black Widow) and Chris Evans (Captain America) earned USD340 million last year when calculated by what they brought in outside the MCU. Although, the biggest part comes from their acting as costumed heroes.
"Celebrities like Downey and Johansson currently have an extreme influence in the demand for large compensation packages from studios that invest millions of dollars in making best-selling movies, such as the Avengers series. Studio incentives to provide contingency compensation to actors, writers, directors, and other important personnel are simple. Film studios rely on film pillars to support their financial performances, "Entertainment Entertainment lawyer David Chidekel was quoted by Movie Web as saying.
Previously there were reports that said if Scarlett Johansson would get the same initial payment, USD20 million, for his solo film, Black Widow. While the big salary is clearly devouring most of Disney / Marvel's profits, until now, MCU has earned more than USD22 billion (Rp308 trillion) and they are the face of this superhero franchise. These studios are considered smart enough to pay them this way to keep everything on track. { Source }
