"Hollywood starts with animation ( to find the latest chapters!

The cost of Toby Maguire’s appearance in "Spider-Man 1" was US$1.5 million. However, due to the big movie release, Wald Pictures, the production company, added another US$4 million in the follow-up period. Reward model.

5.5 million dollars!

This is the total compensation for Toby Maguire’s appearance in Spider-Man 1.

Now that the filming of the movie "Spider-Man 2" is about to start, the protagonist's request for an increase in salary is based on the consideration of Zhuke and others.

In a word, it makes sense!

After all, as a Hollywood sequel movie, it has always been faced with a situation where the cost of actors has risen sharply. Of course, the director will also increase the salary.

But... the lion's open mouth behavior made it difficult for Kevin Fitch and others to accept it.

$12 million in remuneration + 5% North American box office share!

Keep in mind that it is 5% of the North American box office share, not the North American box office net profit share.

After deducting theater operator fees, distributor fees, movie taxation... the rest is the net profit at the North American box office.

Between the two, the difference in amount of money disappeared.

Kevin Fitch said in a deep voice: "Gavin, you tell Toby Maguire and his agent Juan Wiggins that we can agree to the $12 million actor's pay, but 5% of the North American box office is shared. , We will never agree."

"Do not!"

"To be precise, even the North American box office net profit sharing, they don't think about it, give up!"

It is understandable that the production company must ensure its own profitability.

"Okay, I see, I'll go talk." Gavin O'Connor replied and left quickly.

As for Toby Maguire and his agent Juan Wiggins, will they agree? Three words-hard to say!

Of course, there is a very high probability that the two sides are in a drag period, and there is no time for one or two months, and there is no need to negotiate.

"Boss, look at this..."

Kevin Fitch looked at Zhuke and stopped talking.

Zhuke shrugged and smiled: "Don't look at me, you are the president of Wald Pictures."

Upon hearing this, Kevin Fitch took a deep breath and said heavily, "I understand."

Everything counts on Zhuke to make the final decision, so what do you want Kevin Fitch to do?

He is the president of Wald Pictures, not just a tool man.

Otherwise, why should the company give it a high annual salary?

Zhu Ke thought for a while and couldn't help but reminded: "The sequel movie series we will develop in the future will not be less, so you must pay more attention to the payment of sequel movies. Well, when necessary, you can solve it through book means. "

"Book means? Boss, you mean..."

However, before Kevin Fitch was finished speaking, Zhuke interrupted him.

"What? I don't know anything." Zhuke played with the taste.

What is meant by book means is nothing more than thinking of making losses.

In the "Harry Potter" movie series, every movie has a big box office, and it is madly racing around the world. However, on the book, it is also a loss.

And it is a huge loss!

As long as Hollywood production companies are willing, regardless of whether you are an insider or someone outside the industry, it's totally cheating you didn't discuss it!

To be honest, there are not a few movies developed by Wald Pictures.

"Fatal Turn", "Human Removal Project", "Spartan 300 Warriors", "Reaper is Coming"...

These are currently well-known series of Hollywood horror and thriller themes.

but!

Take a look at "Spider-Man" and "Harry Potter"!

They are the real series of movies. The first thing is that the actors cannot be changed, and you must add money to them for subsequent movies.

Including the upcoming movie "Fast and Furious" by Wald Pictures, and the just-appointed "Saw Cry", which are also series of movies.

"Tsk tut~"

Zhu Ke couldn't help sighing: "Kevin, in the future, the sequel movie will be opened. I think you will see this situation where the lion speaks loudly."

Kevin Fitch nodded: "That's why I have a headache!"

Thanks to the filming of "Spider-Man 1", Wald Pictures signed a trilogy contract with Toby McGuire instead of a single "Spider-Man 1" movie. The maximum remuneration was clearly stated. , Otherwise... his asking price will be higher now!

In the original time and space, Colombia suffered this big loss.

The movie "Spider-Man 1", Tobey Maguire made a profit of 8 million US dollars;

In the movie "Spider-Man 2", Tobey Maguire's remuneration alone surged to $17 million, including a certain box office share;

The movie "Spider-Man 3", that's even more exaggerated!

In "Spider-Man 3", Toby Maguire, the actor's salary + box office share alone, exceeded 45 million US dollars in one fell swoop, and even the subsequent copyright income was also involved in the sharing, which was at least another 20 million US dollars in expenditure.

Terrible~

"Thanks to Columbia, I still have a bit of brains. I didn't start filming "Spider-Man 4". Otherwise, the money would be made by the actors." Zhu Ke couldn't help but secretly said in his heart.

High pay

Ask for a box office share;

Ask for subsequent copyright revenue share;

This is a problem that the production company has to face when developing a sequel series of films.

The Iron Man of the movie "Avengers 4", why does Marvel have to write it dead?

Have no idea!

Marvel can't afford Donny's pay!

If you don't write you to death, then who will you write to death?

"Okay, Kevin, I'll leave first. The actor contract of Spider-Man. I only pay attention to the final result." Zhu Ke waved his hand and wanted to leave.

"Yes, boss." Kevin Fitch replied.

The actor's pay issue does not require Zhu Ke to participate, so LOW!

There was a time when Wald Pictures was just established. In the face of these problems, Zhu Ke personally went into battle, but now he doesn't need it anymore. A large number of elite soldiers will take care of everything.

Zhuke does not need to know the process, nor is he interested in knowing ~lightnovelpub.net~ somewhere in Los Angeles.

"Toby, good news!"

The agent Juan Wiggins ran into the villa excitedly and said excitedly: "Man, "Spider-Man 2" is about to start shooting, and the news has spread throughout the United States. No, the news has just come out, Mercedes, Rolex, etc. So many high-quality endorsements have been found, and the asking price is not low!"

"Uh, really? It seems that my sports car needs another Mercedes."

Toby Maguire is also very excited to be able to obtain the boutique endorsements of big brands.

Endorsement contracts are undoubtedly a topic of great concern to artists and agents.

Before "Spider-Man 1" was released, Toby Maguire as an actor was only a small celebrity at the time, and he had only three endorsement contracts.

The highest endorsement is the endorsement of a clothing brand, which is only $200,000 a year.

But... after the release of "Spider-Man"?

He is directly popular all over the world!

In less than a year, Toby Maguire has no less than 20 endorsements, and the lowest endorsement amount is no less than 1.2 million US dollars.

He made crazy!

Toby Maguire said suddenly: "Juan, how did you talk to Wald Pictures?"

Upon hearing this, Juan Wiggins smiled and said: "What else? Of course they don't want to share the box office share, but we must be harder, and we can't compromise easily."

"Of course."

Toby Maguire raised his chin and believed: "I am a good neighbor, Peter Parker, Spider-Man! As long as they want to make money from "Spider-Man", then they must give me the reward they deserve, otherwise I'm good. The neighbor will not agree!"

He is fighting against Wald Pictures.
