I have to say, he knows how to get paid for movies, many of which flopped at the box office

True @SlumberSluggASMR! I left this one out, and the number you quoted is CORRECT!

Working in the finance industry, I would say that this is just about right People forget the guy was also the Director and Producer. Therefore the results were always going to be make break Unless you worked for someone else as well

One of the best actors in the world

No. He's like Eastwood. Plays himself in every film. Just dose it very well.

This is all nonsense. He didn't get paid LESS for rocky 3 & 4 than for Rocky.

I don't believe that either but I will say it does happen, sometimes they take pay cuts so other actors or other people get more money, it is not common but it does happen

You are right @shaz2761 and thank you for pointing this out! He had backend deals which made him millions on the long term. However, my video lists his acting paychecks only. Perhaps I will clarify this in future videos to avoid confusion.

Awesome thank you!

except for Rocky, where his payday would be equivalent to about $15 million in 2024 adjusted for inflation, Sly got seriously ripped off in the 70s in terms of box office returns. Only 75k for Rocky II and 120k for Rocky III? That can't be true. Anyway he more than made up for it the rest of his career, where he was vastly overpaid for formulaic and forgettable films. Sometimes his salary accounted for half the movie's budget. The lone exception is Cop Land, which he made to prove that he was a serious actor. He never was, he could just play Sly.

Great observation! Some of the numbers are truly quite unbelievable, especially in the case of Rocky II and III. I didn't believe them at first either, but I checked and double-checked, and-according to various sources-this was actually the case. But no need to pity him; as you said, he more than made up for them later on. As for how serious an actor he is: well, he is a true actor compared to Schwarzenegger. 😉

He was the writer and producer of all the Rockys and Rambo movies. He owns the rights and royalties to the movies, so his paycheck to himself upfront are small but everything is made on the backend.

@conilmionomecripto thank you for pointing this out. His paycheck for acting in Rocky III was really just 120k. However, he also produced and directed the movie and had some backend deals which ultimately brought millions for him on the long term - those numbers are not official however. My video simply lists his acting paychecks. I will clarify this detail in future videos.

You completely forgot ITALIAN STALLION (1970) LOOK IT UP ON IMDB STALLONE PLAYED SOMEONE CALLED "STUD" AND YES, IT WAS A P MOVIE.

@user-ig7ne2jc8t You are completely right, I left this one out! The original title was The Party at Kitty and Stud's but it was was edited and re-released in 1976 as Italian Stallion to capitalize on its now-famous star. Stallone earned 200 USD for starring in that film.

Some of these dont add up . I didn't realise how much he got paid for some of the flops , and some didn't even make 1m.

@oddsandwindsocks5905 In many cases, actors get paid by the studio before the release of the movie. So if it's a flop, its a loss for the studio but not for the actor.

He earned $10 million for his role as Stakar Ogord in "Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2," but reportedly, he ended up giving his salary back out of gratitude because he was excited to be part of the Marvel Cinematic Universe. He stated that his real paycheck was actually being involved in "the next generation's mythology."
