Known for his outspokenness, Jason Isaacs revealed his cachet for season 3 of “The White Lotus” and it was not at all what we imagined.
Jason Isaacs is never short of a good story. While he revealed the backstage tensions on the set of season 3 of The White Lotus, here he is with another crisp anecdote.
Interviewed by VultureJason Isaacs confirmed that all members of the casting of season 3 of The White Lotus have won $ 40,000 per episode, which brings their total remuneration for the series at 320,000 dollars each, which is almost 277,000 euros. Isaacs pointed out that this sum is actually “very modest“For a series that is so successful.
And it must be recognized that he is right. If the sum may seem substantial for most of us, it is largely below other stamps. For example, Pedro Pascal touched $ 600,000 per episode for the first season of The Last of Us, also on HBO. Same salary for the stars of Only Murders in the Building on Hulu. As for Jennifer Aniston and Reese Witherspoon, they earn $ 2 million each for each episode of The Morning Show on Apple TV+.
The same salary for all
“”In general, the actors do not talk about their salary in public, because it is ridiculously disproportionate in relation to what we do – putting makeup and making funny voices – and that disturbs the public. But compared to what people normally win for major TV productions, it is a very low price. But the fact is that we would have paid to participate. We would probably have given a piece of our body“he says.
The fact that all the actors of The White Lotus are paid equally means that experienced actors such as Isaacs and Parker Posey have received the same salary as newcomers in industry like Sarah Catherine Hook and Sam Nivola. Jason Isaacs answered with an ironic smile when asked if he found this right or not.
“”Do I mind not having been better paid than the others? I never work for money“He said.”I did well. People think that I have considerable money reserves, but unfortunately, I acted in a fairly immature way by increasing my expenses to align them with my income and I spent almost all that I have won over the years.“”
Season 3 of The White Lotus is currently available on Max.
