Avengers Endgame star SALARIES: You won’t BELIEVE Robert Downey Jr’s pay for Iron Man

The Marvel epic has already made $1.3 billion worldwide and it’s not even been out a week. With such monumental profits, it’s unsurprising that Avengers Endgame’s stars are walking away with very large pay cheques. Having started out on $500,000 for the first Iron Man movie 11 years ago, Downey Jr took a salary of $50 million for the first Avengers movie in 2012. He even made $5 million a day for three days work on Spider-Man Homecoming.

Now The Hollywood Reporter’s sources claim he made at least $75 million on Avengers Infinity War last year, thanks to backend profits.

But that’s just for Infinity War, so no doubt his Avengers Endgame salary will be even more.

Meanwhile, Scarlett Johansson is expected to earn around $20 million for her Black Widow solo movie next year, in which she is starring and producing.

As for Captain America and Thor stars Chris Evans and Chris Hemsworth, the pair will have made around $15-20 million for both Infinity War and Endgame, which they shot back-to-back in 2017.

WHAT DOES CAPTAIN AMERICA ENDING MEAN FOR [SPOILER]?

In fact, the four main Avengers stars could rake in even more money when bonuses kick in after Endgame hits $1.5 billion.

And by the looks of current trajectories, the blockbuster goliath will manage this in just the next few days.

While Downey Jr and Evans are done with the franchise, it looks like Hemsworth will continue on as Thor into Marvel Phase 4.
