Clint Eastwood | $12 Million per Movie

With a big name like Clint Eastwood and a career spanning about seven decades, it is only befitting that he is one of the most compensated actors in the industry. The now-91-year-old star’s salary seems to depend on the work he has to do and the role he has to play. It can go up to a staggering $12 million for one movie alone—in Any Which Way But Loose—but knowing it is a 1978 film, it is already a considerable amount of money back then.

He also got $5 million for his role in City Heat and $7 million in In the Line of Fire. With this kind of earnings, no wonder Eastwood has amassed a $12-million fortune throughout the years. It is probably why he holds a vast real estate investment in California, from his 15,000 square feet Carmel-by-the-Sea home to 6,136 feet home in Bel Air.
