The upcoming film Killers of the Flower Moon is all set to release on Apple TV+ soon, and naturally, there have been reports that have estimated what he has earned for his role as Earnest Burkhart. Many reports suggest that the film directed by Martin Scorsese has paid DiCaprio a staggering $30 Million for his contributions to the movie. While this may be a significant amount of money, to say the least, it’s still less than what the star was paid for Inception.

Supposedly the highest salary of his career, The Wolf of Wall Street star was a much-needed addition to Christopher Nolan’s extraordinary sci-fi adventure, which was also the reason why the director agreed to pay a whopping $50 Million for the role of the main protagonist. While this might be an absolutely absurd amount of money for one single actor, his reputation and record of delivering on the promise is the bargaining chip that always makes any exorbitant amount feel justified.
