But don’t weep for Hollywood’s A-listers — they’re doing just fine, thank you very much. A few actors, such as Dwayne Johnson, Vin Diesel and Robert Downey Jr., can even still receive north of $20 million for a big movie, though those checks are usually handed out for only major franchise installments and often are tied to reaching a significant number of box office milestones. In fact, Downey’s performance as Iron Man is so profitable that he makes a mint for glorified cameo appearances. The actor picked up $10 million for roughly 15 minutes of screen time in “Spider-Man: Homecoming.” Getting him to show up for an Iron Man-centric adventure will take more than twice that amount.

In 1977-1978, actor Marlon Brando made $18 million for a few minutes’ apppearance as Superman’s Kryptonian Poppa, JOR-EL, in Richard Donner’s and Christopher Reeve’s flick : SUPERMAN THE. MOVIE!
The 1977 $DOLLAR$ was stronger in super-strength than today’s 2018 cheaper $DOLLAR$!
Wonder what Mr Brando did with his ‘get-rich-quick’ wealth🤑! -
Forget all these comic book heroes…the real superpowered beings are the agents representing these actors.
