You Won't Believe How Little Fifty Shades Of Grey Would Have Paid Charlie Hunnam — cinemablend.com

MOVIE NEWS Charlie Hunnam could have dropped out of Fifty Shades of Grey for any number of reasons, from the claimed reason of an "immersive TV schedule" to the terror of being that guy from the S&M movie for the rest of his life. But is it possible he was just being underpaid? The Hollywood Reporter explores some of the various factors that went into Hunnam's departure from the project and notes almost in passing that he would have been paid $125,000 for the film. Now, granted, that's more than many of us make in a year. But it's also less than what Peter Dinklage makes for a single episode of Game of Thrones. It's three times less than what Andrew Garfield made for his first Spider-Man film. It's almost 1/20th less than what Robert Pattinson reportedly made for the first Twilight film, which is really insane given that Fifty Shades is a phenomenon based entirely off of Twilight's success-- meaning that Hunnam's movie is even more of a sure thing to make money.
