5 What Was Armie Hammer's Salary For The Lone Ranger?

Armie Hammer's Salary: $1 to $2 million

Despite struggling to find his footing in the entertainment industry Armie Hammer had a net worth of $10 million at one point in his career, thanks to his many movie roles. However, after a series of sexual abuse and other allegations, he withdrew from acting, and missed countless film opportunities. But before his rapid descent into obscurity, he had the honor of starring alongside A-lister Johnny Depp in Disney's The Lone Ranger.

Even though Armie Hammer and Johnny Depp were praised for their on-screen chemistry as the film's leading pair, it didn't help the film's overall ratings, which received a 31% approval rating. Also, both Depp and Hammer took a 20% paycut, leaving Depp with a $10 million salary, while it's believed that Hammer earned $1 to $2 million.

Armie Hammer's Salary: $500k to $1 Million

Besides acting in live-action movies, Armie Hammer also tried his luck with animation films, lending his voice to the third and final installment of the Cars franchise, starring the Frat Pack actor, Owen Wilson. Hammer's role of Jackson Storm plays the role of the antagonist and new rival for the main character, Lightning McQueen (Owen Wilson). However, although the film did not receive terrible ratings, it grossed the least of all three film installments, bringing in $383.9 million worldwide.

3 What Was Armie Hammer's Salary For Mirror Mirror?

Armie Hammer's Salary: $500k to $1 Million

During the peak of his career, Armie Hammer also got the chance to star alongside ageless Hollywood divas like Julia Roberts in the 2012 fantasy comedy film, Mirror Mirror. The film was based on the fairy tale, Snow White, and Hammer plays the significant role of Prince Alcott of Valencia, the famous protagonist who meets Snow White in the forest and falls in love with her.

Mirror Mirror can hardly be considered as one of Armie Hammer's successes as it grossed $183 million against a budget of $85 million. According to sources, a film has to earn at least twice its budget at the box office to cover promotional costs. And because this film failed to do so, there was only $13 million left over after production and promotional costs were considered. So, it's more than likely that Hammer was again paid a salary of between $500,000 to $1 million.

• Film budget: $85 million
• Character played: Prince Alcott

Edgar Hoover, Hammer played the FBI's Associate Director, Clyde Tolson.

Like some of Armie Hammer's previous films, the cast agreed to take a major pay cut to fulfill their roles. Leonardo DiCaopriom, for example, took a 90% pay cut and received a salary of just $2 million, which is much less than his standard acting fee of $20 million. Hammer, whose basic acting fee was $1 million, might've also taken a pay cut, settling for an estimated salary of $150,000 to $300,000.
