The Hangover Part III Wolf Pack Demands $15 Million Apiece for Sequel

The Hangover Part III Wolf Pack wants $15 million apiece
Between The Hangover and The Hangover Part II, "The Wolf Pack" has brought in over $1 billion worldwide, and it seems Warner Bros. will have to dig deeper into those profits to ensure The Hangover Part III happens. A new report reveals stars Bradley Cooper, Zach Galifianakis, and Ed Helms are asking for $15 million apiece to reprise their roles in The Hangover Part III.

It is believed that the deals are being finalized, which includes a back end percentage on top of the $15 million, and the actors will likely get what they requested. Bradley Cooper, Zach Galifianakis, and Ed Helms each made a little under $1 million for The Hangover, and $5 million for The Hangover Part II, but with back end compensation, each of the actors have made more than $10 million from The Hangover Part II.

Back in December, Bradley Cooper revealed that The Hangover Part III will start shooting in September, although it seems the studio wants to get started earlier then that. Insiders claim Warner Bros. wants to go into production this summer, so the comedy sequel can hit a Memorial Day 2013 release. Little is known about the story, but it is said to be centered around The Wolf Pack's home city of Los Angeles.

The Hangover Part III comes to theaters May 24th, 2013 and stars Zach Galifianakis, Ed Helms, Bradley Cooper, Mike Tyson. The film is directed by Todd Phillips.

    I love how celebrities moan and groan about capitalism but have absolutely no problem exploiting it for their own financial benefit. Try going to a socialist country and asking for that kind of jack. It's not going to happen.

    I'm sorry but nobody deserves 15 million for acting. We have teachers who actually contribute to society making less than 40 grand a year.

    @jimthar Yeah, I mean Zack Galifianakis was a complete unknown when before the first one came out, he'd only done stand-up and a few minor roles here and there. And Ed Helms was only packing The Office under his belt back then.

    Same thing with Bridesmaids, they all must have gotten under 1 million too.

    Yeah, give in and give them each $15 million they deserve for being unfunny and sell-outs. That's right, studios. That's right.
