Who is the world's highest-earning star? Who earned 1300 crores from one project

There are many stars from Bollywood to Hollywood, whose fees are very high and they earn a lot from a single project. Today we will tell you about an actor who earned 1300 crores from just one project. Now you must be thinking that this could be one of the big stars like Tom Cruise, Shahrukh Khan or Johnny Depp, but it is not so. Yes, these are the actors who have taken such a hefty fee in their early careers in the early 2000s. Let's know who is this actor.

Who is this actor?

The one we are talking about is none other than, whose full name is Keanu Charles Reeves. Talking about Keanu Reeves, he is a Canadian actor. After the success of 'The Matrix', Keanu Reeves earned a lot of money and he became the highest-paid actor in Hollywood. Warner Bros immediately got him two sequels - Reloaded and Revolution and he signed both of them together.

Matrix Reloaded and Revolution

For the two films (shot and produced simultaneously), Keanu got a profit share and a fee of $30 million. Matrix Reloaded and Revolution were released in 2003 and their box office collection was $1.2 billion. Both films have been streamed on OTT and have also been shown on TV many times. This is the reason why Keanu's earnings from these two films became $156 million i.e. Rs 1300 crore and this is the highest earnings of a single project for any actor to date.

How did Keanu beat the rest of the superstars?

If facts are to be believed, the Matrix sequel was released as two films instead of one, which helped them earn more at the box office. This simply meant that Keanu Reeves would have a profit of more than $100 million. However, the record till then was $94 million, which Alex Guinness had earned for 'Star Wars' and these also included films that were re-released several times.

Never got the chance again

It is worth noting that the figure of $156 million is so huge that after 21 years no actor has been able to come close to it. Tom Cruise's highest fee till date is $100 million. Shahrukh Khan got a fee of $40 million for 'Jawaan'. However, Keanu also did not get such a huge fee after this.
