X-Men and GI Joe Franchise Helped Chris Hemsworth Earn Over $83 Million By Rejecting Him When He Was Not Famous


Undoubtedly, Chris Hemsworth has established himself as one of Hollywood’s most prominent stars, all thanks to the god of thunder, Thor. However, before his meteoric rise, Hemsworth led a bustling acting career at least in Australia. Thor marked the pivotal breakthrough in his trajectory, and from then on, there was no turning back. In an interview with GQ Australia, the actor recounted a phase when nothing seemed to work, as he missed out on two significant opportunities to make it big in Hollywood. Little did he realize, the universe had another plan for him, one that would propel him to unfathomable heights of fame.
Subsequently, the star has amassed a substantial fortune from his involvement in the Marvel franchise. His individual films have catapulted him into the ranks of the most bankable stars of his generation. This achievement has paved the way for his expansion into additional franchises such as Extraction, which also have consistently proven to be financially rewarding over the years.

Chris Hemsworth Was Rejceted by Two Major Franchises, X-Men and GI JoePrior to his role in Thor, Chris Hemsworth’s recognition in the US was notably on the lower end compared to his prominence in Australia. Consequently, he persistently wished to achieve success in Hollywood, thus diligently attending each and every audition that came along the way. Unfortunately, luck did not seem to be on his side, and he reached a point where he was almost ready to lose all hope. Especially after experiencing rejections for roles in GI Joe and X-Men. In a 2020 interview with GQ, he stated,
“I had seven or eight call backs and I thought one of those was going to land,–But then neither of them did and all of a sudden I thought: this is it, I’ve missed it again. But then Thor came along. If I had got one of those previous roles I wouldn’t have got Thor.”

Although both were successful ventures, nothing compares to being a Marvel superhero. In addition to the fame, the actor derived a significant fortune from all the films he had ever been a part of. Reflecting on the incident years later, the actor now feels nothing but a sense of gratitude for the rejections he faced. He realizes that if he had been cast in any of the earlier high-budget movies he had auditioned for, he wouldn’t have had the opportunity to secure the role of Thor. These films have not only unlocked numerous opportunities for the actor but also have factored in shaping the star he has become today.
Chris Hemsworth’s Salary in Marvel MoviesDespite reportedly earning a modest $150,000 from the initial movie, Chris Hemsworth’s journey since then has been nothing short of remarkable. And as per Boss Hunting, the actor over the year has made a total of around $83 Million. The actor’s journey began with a relatively modest start in the first film, especially when compared to the subsequent films in the franchise that followed. While the exact figure for his compensation in Thor: The Dark World remains uncertain, it is widely believed that Ragnarok significantly elevated his earnings to approximately $15 million. With the release of Love And Thunder, his compensation reached a substantial sum of $20 million.

Shifting the focus to his involvement in the plethora of other Marvel films, his salary for Age of Ultron amounted to $5 million. The monumental releases of Infinity War and Endgame significantly added his net worth by approximately $15-20 million each. As of now, his accumulated wealth stands at an estimated $130 million.

‘I am officially off the market’: When Margot Robbie revealed she made the ‘conscious’ decision of not dating actors


Margot Robbie revealed her decision to not date actors because of the media scrutiny that came with a public relationship of two high-profile actors
Back in 2015, A-lister Margot Robbie made a declaration that she would not be dating any actors. The actress may have alluded to her fiance Tom Ackerley, who she married the following year in 2016. In an exclusive interview with Marie Claire, she revealed that being in a relationship as an actor herself came with its own set of challenges. She believed that dating someone who was popular would add on to the media scrutiny.

Margot Robbie opened up on why she made a conscious decision to not date actorsTalking to Marie Claire, she claimed, “I am officially off the market.” She then shared the reasoning behind her decision and added, “I made a conscious decision not to date actors.” She continued to explain, “But not because I hate actors. That’s a nasty generalization to make, and that’s not the case. People take such an interest in your love life when you have a profile, it puts a lot of stress on a relationship.”
The Barbie actress continued, “So two people with profiles, I figure it’s just double the amount of scrutiny, and I’d like to avoid that at all costs.” This came after reports of her locking lips with Tarzan co-star Alexander Skarsgard started making rounds. It was reported that she was caught kissing the actor during the Sundance Film Festival.

Margot Robbie revealed she opted for a minimal lifestyle even after becoming an actorIn the interview, Robbie also opened up about how she was adapting to fame. She shared, “I have a normal 24-year-old life. If I were a waitress, I’d probably have the exact same lifestyle. I’d go to the same clubs I go to already, live in the same house with the same housemates, hang out with the same people.”
However, Margot Robbie tied the knot with Tom Ackerley who is an English producer and actor. The duo met on the sets of 2013 movie Suite Francaise where Tom was working as an assistant director. Post marriage, both of them launched their production company LuckyChap Entertainment.

‘Rocky’ Was Quite Different In His Original Screenplay, Sylvester Stallone Claims


Sylvester Stallone took his friend’s advice on a rewrite of the original screenplay to Rocky. A few tweaks later, he was on his way to major success.
In the new Netflix documentary Sly, Stallone discussed how he initially conceived of the project, which had a much harder edge. In the early version, Rocky was depicted as a “thuggish” character, inspired by Martin Scorsese’s crime drama, Mean Streets.

But Stallone’s perspective changed when a friend read the script and thought the boxer was too cruel for audiences to actually care about him.
Stallone recalled her crying.

“She goes, ‘I hate Rocky. I hate him. He’s cruel. He hits people. He beats them up.’”
Stallone took it to heart, and asked what he could do to soften the character.

“I said, ‘what if you stop short of it?’ Like, maybe he almost did. He could have, that’s his job, but he doesn’t?’ ‘That’d be nice,’” he added. “I said, ‘What if he had a girlfriend or something?’ ‘Yeah, that’s nice.’ So I go back, start writing that: ‘Girlfriend. Nice.’”
$117 million in box office later, a franchise was born.

Stallone also revealed that actor Dolph Lundgren sent him to the hospital during one fight scene in Rocky IV.
“Dolph Lundgren… he pulverized me,” Stallone says in the documentary. “Later that night, my heart started to swell—which happens when the heart hits the chest—and then my blood pressure went up to 260, and they thought I was going to be talking to angels. Next thing I know, I’m in intensive care, where I’m surrounded by nuns, and I thought, ‘OK, that’s curtains.’”
Stallone was in the hospital for nine days following the incident, praying for “one more round.”
“For the first minute of the fight, it is going to be a free-for-all,” Stallone told Lundgren. The Swedish actor joked in a separate interview that all he did was “obey orders,” explaining, “[Stallone] was the boss. I did what he told me.”
Doctors allegedly told Stallone that he received a blow to the ribs that made his heart rattle around in his ribcage, a condition typically seen in head-on collisions. “I did hit a bus, of sorts,” Stallone joked.
