Up to $ 1 million per episode: what they charge the actors … – Gizmodo in Spanish

do you Have any idea of what that charges your actor or actress favorite for doing that role that you see every week on television? Let me give you a hint: a lot. Series such as House of Cards, Big Bang Theory, Game of Thrones or the late night show of Jimmy Fallon have budgets huge for its actors that may charge up to a million dollars per episode.

If ever you find yourself with more movie actors doing tv series is not a coincidence. The "small screen" can be quite generous in terms of income (in addition to that is another wonderful way of telling stories, but that’s neither here nor there). For example, for each episode in which we see Frank Underwood looking at the camera, the actor behind the character carries $ 500,000. Not to mention what he charges Jim Parsons for making this unfriendly but lovable Sheldon Cooper.

In Variety have published an article fairly extensive relative to what they charge the actors of the television series most popular of the moment, and the numbers are amazing:

In a series of comedy:

• Jim Parsons (Sheldon Cooper) – Big Bang Theory: 1 million
  
• Kaley Cuoco (Penny) – Big Bang Theory: 1 million
  
• Johnny Galecki (Leonard Hofstadter) – Big Bang Theory: 1 million
  
• Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson (Spencer Strasmore) – Ballers: 400.000
  
• Drew Barrymore (Sheila) – Santa Clarita Diet: 350.000
  
• Emma Stone, Maniac: 350.000
  
• Jonah Hill – Maniac: 350.000
  

In a series of drama:

• Lauren Graham (Lorelai Gilmore) – Gilmore Girls: 750.000
  
• Alexis Bledel (Rory Gilmore) - Gilmore Girls: 750.000
  
• Mark Harmon (Leroy Jethro Gibbs) – NCIS: 525.000
  
• Kevin Spacey (Frank Underwood) – House of Cards: 500.000
  
• Peter bad griesbach (Tyrion Lannister) – Game of Thrones: 500.000
  
• Lena Headey (Cersei Lannister) – Game of Thrones: 500.000
  
• Kit Harington (Jon Snow) – Game of Thrones: 500.000
  
• Emilia Clarke (Daenerys Targaryen) – Game of Thrones: 500.000
  
• Nikolaj Coster-Waldau (Jaime Lannister) - Game of Thrones: 500.000
  
• Claire Danes (Carrie Mathison) – Homeland: 450.000
  

These are today the actors and actresses better paid of the tv. The number of actors in the movie who are participating in the series currently is growing. For 2017 are expected to series featuring Naomi Watts, Nicole Kidman, Daniel Craig and Reese Witherspoon, all with salaries of at least $ 250,000 per episode.

on the other hand there are also the Reality Shows and Talk Shows, in which Jimmy Fallon and Jimmy Kimmel are between 13 and 15 million dollars a year for its programs, Adam Levine and Miley Cyrus between 13 and 15 million dollars for his involvement in The Voice and Judge Judy Sheindlin nothing modest sum of $ 47 million a year for their program Judge Judy.

So the next time you see a movie actor doing a tv series does not believe that it is because he has already spent his time. At the TV also valued his work with a lot, a lot of money. [via Variey]
