| How Much Do Nollywood Stars Earn? by lisap: 3:04am On Nov 27, 2009 |
Hi people, I am researching the Nollywood film industry for a media essay and would like some help from nairalanders. A key area I wish to touch on is the pay structure of the industry. Could individuals that have some knowledge of the industry make an informed guess on the average per film pay of a hollywood celeb?I know this would depend on the individuals marketability, but perhaps we could split into three levels where at the top you have people like Genevieve, Omotola and co, while the bottom will be bit part actors. Many thanks for all your help. |

I don't think that its only dependent on their marketability--- their roles within the movies also matters. Probably like 100k per movie--- I imagine. idk. |

it all depends on the how influencial the nollywood stars are. i heard Genevieve, 'Motola and Ramsey earn over half a million per movie, meanwhile, some up-and-comers earn as low as 5k in the same movie. some of them even work for free, as long as it will bring them into the limelight. |

Thanks for the responses so far. Who would you consider belong in the top bracket of earners in nollywood? |

top dogs in the industry are people like Ramsey Nouah, Genevieve Nnaji, Motola jalade Ekeinde, Mike Ezerounye, Stephanie Okereke, Nkem Owoh, Rita Dominic etc. those are the people that earn six-seven digits per movie (in Naira). the fairly known ones earn way less. |
