Christopher Nolan is the highest paid director in the world!

It’s official guys – Christopher Nolan is the highest paid director in the world.


Word on the street is that he’s making a massive $20 million up-front for his war film Dunkirk, which is due out next summer. That aside, Chris will also get 20 percent of the film’s gross and, if his past films are any indicator, that will be another huge payday. To give you some context, the average salary for successful filmmakers in LA is between $750,000 and $1.5 million. I’m guessing the fact that Chris’ films have made $4.2 billion across the globe helped land him the sweet deal!
