Will Smith is supposed to make $35 million for Bright 2, which will be headed to Netflix.
Cameron Diaz made $42 million on Bad Teacher – in that case, again, most of the money was reportedly from negotiating a percentage of the box office intake.
To put into context, $50 million would be more than the $40 million salary that Robert Downey Jr. allegedly earned on Captain America: Civil War or the $20 million salary earned for Avengers: Endgame, though it’s worth noting the actor came out way further ahead than that with all his MCU gigs due to profit participation on the backend.
