Chris Pratt and Jennifer Lawrence to earn huge paychecks for 'Passengers' movie

Jennifer Lawrence is from the 'Hunger Games' and Chris Pratt is from the 'Jurassic World' but combining them both in one movie will definitely be costing nothing less than $32 million.

According to reports Jlaw and Mr. Pratt are nearing a deal to star together in the upcoming sci-fi drama Passengers and their pay days are going to be super huge!

The 24-year-old Oscar-winning actress is said to get a $20 million salary along with 30 percent of the film’s profit after the movie breaks even, according to THR.

Meanwhile, the man of the hour, Chris, 35, was only supposed to receive $10 million for his work, but after his film Jurassic World broke the domestic and global box office recordsthis weekend, he was able to negotiate his fee up to $12 million.
