Natasha Lyonne was paid.....


500k for appearing in American Reunion? She was in it for literally 50 seconds. She was paid 500k for 1 day of work, that's just crazy. I don't really care, I just find it astonishing.

I don;t believe this at all. Lyonne's work has been sporadic and has mostly been getting bit parts in shows and is just beginning to scrape herself out of obscurity after her downward spiral. Her appearance was brief and not even necessary so I highly doubt that is correct.


Remember, anyone can submit info on here and inaccurate and made up things frequently appear.

Hackerman, you are a literal dumba** for believing this. And even more so, for posting a thread about it...

Yes, the likes of Cruise and Pitt get inflated wages, but this, this is just BS. I just wanted to let you know you've wasted all of our time on this stupid stupid thread.

reply

I concur. There is no way she got paid that much when she was in 1 scene. The actors that were in the ENTIRE movie didn't get much more than that. She's not famous and she's not even a beloved character. There is no way she had any clout to command that. Anyone who believed it is a god damn moron.

reply

There is absolutely no way that is correct. Everyone on this thread is now dumber for reading that. I award you no points, and may God have mercy on your soul

Okay, a simple "wrong" would've done just fine.

I sincerely thank you for this reference!

As for Lyonne's pay, perhaps she simply took a % of the opening weekend or something *IF* that # is accurate!

I fell asleep during INCEPTION BUT I FEEL like I still saw it!

The studio wanted the whole cast of the first film back. that gave the actors leverage. Eugene Levy got $3 million.

reply

That just can't be true. Eugene Levy is an important part of the American Pie movies and I believe they pay whatever he demands but who the *beep* cares about that Jessica character. No way they paid her 500k for that.

reply

who ever believes that is a moron. 50k tops.

They should have saved the money. Her part could easily have been left on the cutting room floor. Same as Shannon Elizabeth's.

And they should have let John Cho just do his think of showing up at parties and that was it.

Wow. That's a lot of money for what amounts to a cameo. Maybe I should have been a bloody actor.
