Member Iron_Leopard Posted June 3, 2020 Member Share Posted June 3, 2020 Just curious if it was ever revealed how much money actors could make per movie. I know the bigger stars made more but a lot of these movies (especially Chor Yuen movies) had dozens of characters and speaking roles. What are we thinking? Since it's the 70s I'm guessing maybe 5k a movie for stars like Ti Lung? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member Graeme Of Death Posted June 3, 2020 Member Share Posted June 3, 2020 Always wondered how much these guys and the folk at Golden Harvest made. I think they were all mostly contracted were they not, so they'd be getting so much for 10 films etc I only know Jackie was making millions according to his book and giving a lot to his stunt team. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member venom10463 Posted June 3, 2020 Member Share Posted June 3, 2020 (edited) Going off a few photos with Shaw stars and their cars. I would say the top stars were making a nice living. A lot of actors back then were making 20 or more films per year. Edited June 3, 2020 by venom10463 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
