The rest of the Avengers cast came on cheap. Half a million supposedly.<br/><br/>That won't happen again this time. The last Avengers movie cost 220 million dollars. Which means maybe... 150 million didn't go into paying off the cast and went into everything else.<br/><br/>So at a minimum you'll be spending 150 million each to make Avengers 2 and 3. Which becomes 200 million with RDJ. Now you can add up the paydays of Samuel L. Jackson, Chris Hemsworth, Chris Evans, Jeremy Renner, Scarlett Johannson, Mark Ruffalo and whoever else you get to round out the cast. Worst case scenario and they all get fifty million, well that means 300 million more dollars. :p So it's a half billion dollar budget. So it would have to make at least a billion in the box office to 'break even' generally speaking. And the more that is made in North America... the better.<br/><br/>The first Avengers though did make 1.5 billion. So it's entirely possible. :)<br/><br/>
