How Much Emma Watson Make From Beauty And The Beast

Emma Watson was reportedly given an upfront cheque of $3m (that's £2.4m to you and me) to play Belle, but depending on the success of the movie that may increase to five times the amount, according to The Hollywood Reporter .

She could end up taking home $15m if the movie has the same success as Maleficent - which it is on track to do.

It may, or may not, sound like a lot, but for Watson, who took home $60m for all eight Harry Potter movies it's a whopping amount.

The film has broken box office records after taking£18.4m over its opening weekend. It is also America’s seventh best debut of all time and the top March debut ever.

Watson's wage may come as a surprise to those following all things Disney as there are claims the studio is now beginning to feel the wrath of some reps, who see the studio’s penny-pinching as on par with Marvel.

There had been reports during filming Dan Stevens was denied a rental car upgrade, which he wanted to accommodate his children. It was also claimed Disney refused to pay for Lily James' mum to fly first class with her when she promoted Cinderella.

Watson is raking in $3 million upfront for her starring role as Belle in the live-action version of the 1991 animated classic, though she stands to make up to $15 million if the movie cleans up at the box office (which it likely will—the movie is projected to rake in somewhere between $120 million to $140 million in its first weekend alone).

The issue of women getting paid what they're worth is more important than ever, considering how widespread the wage gap is between men and women in most industries, but especially in Hollywood. Watson, an outspoken feminist, has advocated in the past for equal pay, a topic stars like Jennifer Lawrence, Sharon Stone, Natalie Portman, Emmy Rossum, Jennifer Aniston, and Emma Stone have been rightfully vocal about, as well.
