Hollywood’s highest-paid actors might soon have to tighten up their belts, Brad Pitt predicts. According to the Fight Club star, Hollywood is running out of cash due to the global financial crisis.
“It’s a really interesting time. A lot of the studios have been challenged because of the economic downturn as well, so they’ve been betting on bigger, more tent pole kinds of things. At the same time that opens up a vacuum for really interesting new filmmakers to come in,” showbizspy.com. is quoting Pitt as saying.
The 48-year-old star said even a ‘modest’ $10 million benchmark per movie is likely to become a surreal fee.
“That thing died. That arithmetic doesn’t really work right now… that deal’s not flying these days.”
According to Forbes’ top 10 highest earning actors list published, Pitt banked $25 million in the last financial year while Tom Cruise topped the list with earnings of $75 million.
