Bruce Willis earned so much for the “sixth feeling” that it would be enough for life – thanks to a cunning point in the contract

After he was diagnosed with Afazia, the actor ended his career, but can afford a carefree life financially. And in many ways it is worth not only to thank dozens of successful roles, but also a particularly successful contract – for photographing in the thriller “Sixth Self -self”.

In the late 90s, Willis was in a difficult situation. The sports comedy of Broadway Brawler never reached the screens – the production fell off and loses were around $ 17 million. To compensate for Disney Studios these losses, the actor agreed with a three cortical contract with a reduced reimbursement. This package included Armageddon, Baby and, above all, the sixth feeling.

Because one item in the contract has changed everything

For the role of Dr. Malcolm Crowe Willis he received a standard droppings of $ 14 million for a transaction. However, he managed to include a cunning point in the contract:

• 17% of the world box office;
• Percentage of the sale of home video.

The risk for the studio was justified. The sixth sense with a budget of 40 million earned 672 million at the World Box Office and was the second 1999 cash register. As a result, Willis did not earn 14, but no less than $ 114 million. According to experts, if the actor would remain at his standard rate of 20 million, he would have lost more than 80 million profit.

A condition that is worth a blockbuster

According to Celebrity, Bruce Willis is estimated at around $ 250 million. His income is impressive in the context of individual projects:

• Almost $ 80 million – for all films of the Strong Nut -Franchise, including 25 million for the fourth part;
• 20 million – for the voice of two parts “who would say”;
• 55 million – total income for 2000;
• 46 million – for 2002.

The result is simple: a competent broken percentage of the “sixth feeling” changed a good compensation into a real capital-forming income-a rare case when one line in the contract changes the financial future of the actor.
