The Russo brothers return to Marvel with a huge salary
A magical reversal story
Have you heard? Recently, according to foreign media, the Russo brothers, the director of the big coffee, returned to direct Marvel's new film "Avengers 5 and 6", and received a director's salary of up to 80 million US dollars (about 580 million yuan)! And Robert · Downey Jr., who played "Doctor Destruction", was paid "much more".
That's a jaw-dropping slump! Not only did the Russo brothers make a lot of money, but even Robert Jr. · Donnie, a Marvel veteran veteran, whose salary is also rising. Sounds like a fantasy, right? But it turned out to be true!
Let's take a look at the specifics first. The $80 million director's salary does not only include the salary upgrade after the Russo Brothers directed the latest "Avengers 3 and 4", but also includes the back-end compensation. Robert · Jr.'s contract not only has a generous salary, but also comes with luxury benefits such as private jets, intimate security and a whole "trailer camp".
This is staggering! I can understand the fact that big production salaries are rising, but that's too exaggerated, right? The Russo brothers and Robert · Downey Jr. seem to be sucking Marvel's money bag dry. No wonder some people joke that they are the real bosses of Marvel Studios.
The high salaries of these two big names have undoubtedly aroused heated discussions among many fans. Some argue that this has lost its proper proportion, reflecting Marvel's over-reliance on stars. Some people also say that as long as they can shoot good works, they should be paid highly, after all, they are powerful.
In short, netizens have different reactions to this sky-high salary. Some people are envious, some people are puzzled, and some people criticize. In this turbulent discussion, we might as well review the past achievements and charms of these two celebrities, and try to give our own evaluation. In any case, their high salaries have become a big topic in the entertainment industry.
The high salary has aroused heated discussions, how much is the value of the actor?
After the foreshadowing above, we should have a certain understanding of the sky-high salaries of the Russo brothers and Robert · Downey Jr. But the controversy doesn't stop there.
Some fans questioned whether such a high cost was worth it, after all, the audience's money for tickets eventually had to be taken out of their own pockets. What's more, if actors' salaries skyrocket, will it lead to unacceptable film costs, and ultimately hurt the entire film industry.
I think there is some truth to this concern. After all, if the film industry wants to develop sustainably and healthily, it needs to maintain a reasonable input-output ratio. But at the same time, we can't ignore the value that these big-name actors and directors bring.
For example, Robert · Downey Jr. can be said to have successfully created an iconic image when he played Iron Man and contributed a lot to the Marvel Universe. And the Russo brothers have also amassed a large number of fans with their excellent directing work in the previous "Avengers". These have undoubtedly increased box office appeal and brand value.
Therefore, I think it is also appropriate to give these superstars a matching salary. After all, they can create huge commercial value for the film and reflect its due value. Of course, whether the specific figure is reasonable or not still needs to be further negotiated and balanced by the film company and the actors.
We should also understand that big-name actors like Robert · Downey Jr. have more demanding lifestyles and working conditions. Additional benefits such as private jets and security also reflect their status and dignity as stars to a certain extent.
On the whole, this controversy over superstar remuneration reflects the complexity of the film industry's value proposition for actors. Is it to maximize profits, or to pay for the art of cinema itself? This is a question worth pondering. However, I believe that as long as there is a reasonable balance between film companies and actors, the film industry will continue to grow healthily.
