On average, how much do actors get paid for movies?

I know it depends a lot, but say the movie made $1,000,000 at the box office, how much of that would go to the star?

this is very difficult to answer take the blair witch those actors only got 500 dollars and the movie made millions, actors get paid whether the movie is a flop or a blockbuster based on what they negotiatebut unless they are smart the box office sales usually go to the studio, the actors salary has already been added to the budget of the movie.

Honestly it depends on the Star, starting out actors can make $300 000, whereas someone like Brad Pitt can make up to $30 million a movie (maybe even more)
