“Midnight Cowboy” – Joe buck ($1,000)
The last name on our list is Jon Voight with a low paycheck of $ 1.000 for the movie “Midnight Cowboy” .
I am not familiar with this actor, but maybe you are.
Jon Voight began his acting career in 1961 and since than, it was a constant struggle for many years to come.
Voight took the minimum wage to appear in the Midnight Cowboy and rumors say that he was even charged $15 for his meals on the last day of filming.
But that not bother Jon, because he knew that this movie will be a great oportunity to launch his name.
And it was a good call, because Jon Voight for his performance was nominated for an Academy Award.
