In 2002, who was paid US$5.5 million, a world record for an actor in his first starring movie role?

That's ridiculous!! Why don't teachers & doctors make that much $$?

Agree there should be a limit to what is made on films. There are many other actors that would take lesser money. I think they should take a bid and pick 10 actors and the lowest one wins. And females should be paid the same as males.

I totally agree. Athletes, actors and terrible politicians are way overpaid! while the rest of American workers, especially essential workers like nurses, EMT's, teachers, caregivers in nursing homes and laborers, are grossly underpaid. And have been for years. Something needs to change
