Reporting to Variety, it is stated that the Australian actress gets paid 50 million USD for her salary and bonuses.
Big Pay Margot Robbie apart from being the main character, she served as a producer
This figure is certainly far from the amount generated by the film where it only took three weeks for Barbie to touch more than 1 billion USD in revenue.
The amount of revenue from this film continues to grow and has made it the second highest-grossing film of all time ever made by Warner Bros. (only losing to Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows-Part 2).

Margot Robbie also certainly got a big bonus because apart from being the main actor, she also served as a producer of the film. If it was previously reported that Margot was only paid 12.5 million USD, then her income increased rapidly to 50 million USD after combining with bonuses.
Director Greta Gerwig also received a huge bonus from the success, but it was not stated how much the 40-year-old received.
In addition to the coffers of money, Greta also entered the top ranks of female directors with the highest-grossing films of all time and beat Jennifer Lee with her Frozen II.
Barbie officially became the highest-grossing film in Margot Robbie's career. The film was also unusual, there were no kissing scenes or nude scenes like the Australian actress usually does in her films.
Even Margot Robbie's colleagues wonder why there is no kiss between the character she plays and Ken (Ryan Gosling). This was revealed in a recent interview with People.
"All my girlfriends said, 'So, you did the whole movie with him [Ryan Gosling] and you didn't kiss him? What's wrong with you? I think you had enough power on this project!" recalls Margot Robbie.
"I just said, 'I know, I can't manage that one,'" he added.
Meanwhile, Ryan Gosling, who was also present in the interview, also expressed his opinion. He mentioned that it might be funny if Ken and Barbie kissed.
