"The Hangover" earnings

"The Hangover" had relatively unknown actors like Ed, Bradley, Zach Galifianakis, and Justin Bartha along with Cooper when it was approved. The studio almost canceled due to concerns about star power but director Todd Phillips believed in them. He gave up $6.5 million of his salary for a share of profits, reminding the studio the actors earned less than $1 million combined. The first film made $470 million in theaters and $75 million on DVDs, a top R-rated comedy. Surprisingly, no sequel commitments meant higher salaries and shares for the group. The sequel earned nearly $600 million, giving Phillips $70 million and the four actors $30 million each. Overall, Phillips made $150 million from three movies and the four main actors earned $40 million.
