Brad Pitt could earn a higher fee if he agrees to star in a movie with his ex-wife, Angelina Jolie.
For years, the couple’s breakup was a subject of public discussion. However, now they might earn up to $60 million if they decide to work together on a film.
Brad and Angelina first met while filming Mr. & Mrs. Smith in 2004, and they married ten years later. Now, producers want them to reunite for a drama set during World War II. The story will focus on the Martinez family, who own the Hotel Martinez in Cannes, France.
Producer Danny Rossner believes this project has huge potential. He plans to offer Brad Pitt $37.5 million to star in the film. Angelina Jolie would be offered $22 million for her role.
Rossner explained, “Right now, I think Brad Pitt’s asking price is between $20 and $25 million per film, and Angelina usually gets paid around $15 million. We’re prepared to offer about a 50% premium on that, which is what we can propose. This offer reflects the unmatched box-office potential Brad and Angelina bring as a pair.”
Both actors have been known for their box-office success, and this offer reflects the belief that their reunion on screen would generate significant interest. While their marriage ended years ago, their on-screen chemistry is still valued in the film industry.
If they accept the offer, the movie will mark a major collaboration between the two stars, and the producers are confident it will be a lucrative venture for all involved. The film could tap into their continued popularity and bring in impressive earnings.
