When RDJ and both Chris signed up, MCU was not a thing. So of course their paycheck is lower. MCU is a cult following now so they have the means and should dish out more. That said, the MCU staple actors also get a cut of the movie/theater sales too. So if you combine that, I bet they get much more than a one-time $7.7M.
Also, I like Tony but I think he’s miscast. Disclaimer I haven’t seen the movie yet. It’ a martial art based show, wish they casted someone who actually has martial art background. Regardless, I will venture out to support this movie! So rare, and I hope it continues to do well and become a classic.
