>> It depends on how much the movie makes. Most movies make 1 to 2 billion dollars,
>> so an actor probably makes $900,000 to 1 million dollars maybe more.
No, they have to pay an actor before the film even gets to the movie theater. And there is no way of predicting if the film will do well. It takes about two years or more from writing the screenplay to selling the screenplay to pre-production to production to post-production to release. Some films never make it to release, either.
That said, they hire big name stars to play the lead, hoping the name will bring in the audience to help the film make several million at the box office!

RafaIt depends on wich role they play in the movie if they are a main character i could imagine it might be a large sum but if the person is only part of the movie a minute or two it might be a small sum
depends on the movies budget. If the budget is large then like 5000-10000. small budget then like 5000-1000. Also the role if your the lead role then a lot more then someone with 3 lines.
That depends on the actress and how famous she is. Actresses like Reese Witherspoon and Angelina Jolie have been paid $15-20 million for one movie.
