Chris Evans | Avengers: Endgame
As the first Avenger, it’s pretty surprising that he left the role for good, more so for the fans. Guess even a higher paycheck is somehow insufficient. Although he cannot reasonably claim the highest-paid actor status in the lead ensemble of Avengers: Endgame, The Things revealed that he collected a salary amounting to $20 million. Yup, just for this installment alone. Just think of how much he made for Avengers: Infinity War, probably a little less or just the same.
Of course, it’s also worth mentioning some of the movie credits where he doesn’t have to bring a metallic shield. These are the 2017 movies Gifted, Fantastic Four, another superhero role, and Knives Out. Since his character as Captain America, a.k.a Steve Rogers, was cut off, per his decision, it’s uncertain what he will do next, but his fans indeed are waiting.
