Margot Robbie Expected to Earn $50 Million as Producer and Star of Blockbuster ‘Barbie’
The 33-year-old star of Barbie, who also produced the film, is expected to earn $50 million as part of a deal that combines her salary and back-end box office bonuses. Her husband Tom Ackerley is also a producer on the film.
Reps for Warner Bros. and Robbie did not immediately respond to PEOPLE’s requests for comment.
Barbie has so far surpassed $1 billion at the worldwide box office, making Greta Gerwig the highest-grossing female director of a live-action movie at the global box office, per The Hollywood Reporter. It topped 2019’s Captain Marvel, which was co-directed by Anna Boden.
Robbie produced Barbie with her company LuckyChap Entertainment, which previously produced Birds of Prey and the Oscar-winning Promising Young Woman.
