These Avengers Endgame Salaries Are Insane

The billion-dollar-plus earnings for Marvel universe movies is a relatively new phenomenon. The franchise got its start back in 2008 with the first Iron Man movie. Back then, Robert Downey Jr. only made a fraction of what he does now. Downey Jr. just wasn’t a bankable star then. He was a risk for the studio due to his history of drug abuse. Over the past decade plus, the stars of the franchise have more than proven they can attract audiences and bring in enormous box office numbers. That said, keep in mind that Marvel is notoriously cheap for its franchise’s first movies and everyone from Robert Downey Jr. to Scarlett Johansson to Chris Pratt and Brie Larson made high six to low seven figure salaries in their first MCU films. Benedict Cumberbatch’s Doctor Strange salary is an exception to that rule. Below, we take a look at the original six Avengers and five Marvel superheroes who have their own movies and what they make.
