Leave a comment

Ellen Pompeo: $22 million 

With “Grey’s” now in its 14th season, Pompeo is one of the highest-paid actresses in Hollywood, earning more than $20 million a year, according to The Hollywood Reporter. She’ll receive $575,000 per episode, a seven-figure signing bonus, producing fees and back-end equity in the deal, among other perks.

Charlize Theron: $23 million

Theron likes to balance her work in smaller films, like 2011’s Young Adult, with bigger-budget fare like last year’s Snow White and the Huntsman. She also starred in Prometheus, the kind-of prequel to Aliens which earned $403 million at the global box office. Theron supplements her movie money with high-paid endorsements for brands like Dior. She’s now adding behind-the-scenes duties to her resume, executive producing a Hatfields & McCoys pilot for NBC.

Margot Robbie: $23.5 million

Margot Robbie, meanwhile, earned between $9-10 million for reprising the role of Harley Quinn in 2020’s Birds Of Prey, a fee that was bolstered by her also serving as a producer on the film.

Elisabeth Moss: $24 million

Elisabeth Moss is revealed to net $1m per episode for her lead role in The Handmaid’s Tale as well as Norman Reedus who’ll earn that same amount after succeeding Andrew Lincoln as the lead star of The Walking Dead.

Kaley Cuoco: $25 million

Some of the highest paid actresses on television have long-running starring roles in hit network comedies and dramas currently on air. Sofia Vergara, who plays Gloria on Modern Family, was the highest-paid actress of 2017. Ellen Pompeo (Grey’s Anatomy) and Cuoco also made that list. Cuoco is now reportedly worth over $50 million.

Jennifer Aniston: $28 million

The magazine estimated her net worth at $110 million in 2007, $150 million in 2014, and $200 million in 2017. It listed her earnings as $19.5 million in 2018.

Leave a comment

Netflix’s is expected to hit $14 Billion in spending on new content this year. Apple has even had to increase their spend on original Apple TV content to $5 Billion.

Let’s take a look at the Star Power $397 Million buys you.

Ben Affleck

$8 million for “Triple Frontier”

Ben Affleck has certainly proven himself a leading man. He hasn’t really done anything that I’ve been a big fan of in a long time, but, I did somewhat enjoy the movies he’s been in.

Gal Gadot

$20 million for “Red Notice”

Gal can do no wrong, her role selection is perfect, and I cannot wait to see her in the new Wonder Woman movie. I haven’t seen much on Red Notice but I’ll be sure to post the trailer when it drops.

Ryan Reynolds

$27 million for “Six Underground”
$20 million for “Red Notice”

This doesn’t surprise me – Reynolds has been heating up for some time now. We’ll likely see a few more Netflix’s and Ryan Reynolds collaborations in the near future, but until then, here’s a trailer for Six Underground (Out December 13th, 2019

Will Smith

$35 million for “Bright 2”

Will Smith is Will Smith, he’s an action star who tried tirelessly to win an oscars in serious roles. He went back to basic when he collaborated with Netflix on Bright, which, out of his last few movies, was probably the best. This is a trailer for the first bright.

Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson”

More than $20 million for “Red Notice”

It’s The Rock, he is a mega movie star, beloved by all, and I’m surprised it took Netflix’s this long to lock him down for a movie. The trailer for Red Notice isn’t out yet, but, Jungle Cruise is coming out soon and I’m looking forward to it.

Adam Sandler

$250 million for four movies

Sandler’s Netflix movies have been major critical misfires, but that didn’t stop the streamer from signing him for four more movies in 2017 after his initial deal. His 2015 Netflix movie “The Ridiculous Six” has a 0% Rotten Tomatoes critic score. Here is the trailer for his new movie.

The Definitive List of Space Movies You Need To Watch

Leave a comment

Movies about space always spark my imagination, the idea of traversing the unknown, the notion of leaving the relative safety of my home, and being in an environment filled with the building blocks of life.

With that in mind, I have decided to put together a list of Space movies that always spark my imagination and leave me wanting more. The criteria for this list is simple, movies that have to do with space that have a realistic feel to them, they need to be based on some sort of science (Even if it’s impossible)

The Martian (2015)

Interstellar (2014)

Apollo 13 (1995)

2001: A Spacetime Odyssey

Contact (1997)

The Right Stuff (1983)

Gravity (2013)

The Lego Movie 2: The Second Part – Theatrical Release Date: February 8th, 2019

The much anticipated second instalment of The Lego Movie is slated for release on February 8th, 2019, even at my age I thoroughly enjoyed the first one and can’t wait for the second.

I’m sure everyone will be happy to know that Chris Pratt will be returning to the franchise, but this time, he’ll be voicing two characters! While watching the trailer something stood out! His second character (Rex Dangervest) he’s described as a; Galaxy Defending, Archeologist, Cowboy, and Raptor Trainer.

Reference and the Movie he was in:

Pratt played Star Lord in the Guardians of the Galaxy
Pratt played Josh Faraday in Magnificent Seven
Pratt played Owen Grady the Raptor Trainer in both Jurassic World and Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom
Pratt has yet to play an archeologist, he has, however, been rumoured to be heavily favoured by Disney to take on the iconic role of Indiana Jones!

Nerdy Trailer Alert: Rampage to smash into theatres​ on 4/20

Leave a comment

We have the latest in video game adaptations to hit theatres, Rampage, starring Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson. Typically video game adaptation bomb at the box office (Mortal Kombat, Assassin’s Creed, Warcraft, Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time), there always seems to be something missing that writers, directors, and producers can’t recreate.

I was never a huge Rampage fan growing up but this trailer does make the movie look like a fun ride and that’s what’s most important. I feel like the CGI is going to be amazing and Rock of going to bring his A game which will ultimately lead to a good (Not Great) movie.

I think this movie is going to be exactly what you think it will be, action-packed and fun, one of those movies you put on when you’re in the mood to just enjoy something in the background, similar to, San Andreas, and Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle.
