Twilight actors get $25m each
The stars of Twilight Robert Pattinson, Kristen Stewart and Taylor Lautner are reportedly being paid a whopping $25 million each for the final two movies in the vampire series. Summit, the studio which produces the movie franchise, will pay the three leading stars an unprecedented $25 million each against 7.5 per cent of the theatrical gross for starring in parts one and two of Breaking Dawn, reported New York Daily News.
If Breaking Dawn earns as much as the second movie New Moon, which raked in $710 million, 7.5 per cent of that would mean the stars could add another $16 million to their salary for a total of $41 million.
“This proves the point that the star doesn’t make the box office, the box office makes the star,” said box office guru Paul Dergarabedian.
