According to Variety, Robert Downey Jr., known for his high salaries in the film industry, is set to set new records by playing Doctor Doom in the upcoming films “Avengers: Secret Wars” and “Avengers: Doomsday.” His salary will exceed $80 million, which is a record amount.
This impressive fee was made possible by several factors. Firstly, Doctor Doom will be a key character in future films of the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Secondly, the condition for the actor’s return was the participation of the Russo brothers as directors, with whom he successfully collaborated on the filming of the previous films “Infinity War” and “Endgame”.
And the unconditional love of the audience for the actor adds significance to the event. His appearance at the recent Comic-Con in Sand Diego had the effect of an exploding bomb.
