Margot Robbie Raup 767 Billion From The Success Of Barbie Film

JAKARTA - Margot Robbie is estimated to have received a big advantage from the success of the Barbie film. He reportedly received a salary of 50 million US dollars or equivalent to Rp. 767 billion.

Launching Variety, a source explained that Robbie's income was earned because she not only played the main character. Robbie and her husband, Tom Akkerley are also the main producers of this film.

In the process, Margot Robbie admitted that she had claimed this film would create a box office with extraordinary numbers. He didn't even plan to play the role of the iconic character when the film was in the development process.

"It sounds stupid, but I really never thought I would play Barbie until we developed this project," Margot Robbie said in the interview.

He gave an example of the Jurassic Park franchise from Steven Spielberg which developed into a successful franchise.

"And I said 'And you guys have Barbie and Greta Gerwig' and I think I told them that the film will get one billion dollars, it sounds too much but we have to make it, right?' Margot Robbie said.
