How Rebel Wilson Actually Lost Money After Signing On For Bridesmaids



When Bridesmaids hit theaters over a decade ago, it broke all kinds of box office records. It also went on to become one of the best romantic comedies of all time, and it even helped usher in a new age of raunchy female-driven movies, like Joy Ride. Unfortunately, the same success was not extended to everyone in the ensemble cast. Scene-stealer Rebel Wilson, in particular, has opened up about how little she actually received once the movie was released. 

The comedy actress first revealed her lackluster paycheck for the movie in her memoir Rebel Robin, which also called out her co-star Sacha Baron Cohen and told other shocking stories. The $3,500 she received for the role of Brynn hardly sounds like a fair paycheck, and Wilson seems to agree. In fact, she spoke with The Hollywood Reporter and explained that after all was said and done, she actually lost money by appearing in the iconic movie:

I basically made no money. I lost money because I had to pay to go to the premiere, like to buy my dress and everything.
