As the SAG-AFTRA strike continues on, people are listening to what actors from all ranks have to say about Hollywood pay!
Take, for example, Seann William Scott — the thespian who played Steve Stifler in the American Pie films. In a resurfaced Rick Eisen Show interview that’s recently gone viral amid the Screen Actors Guild and Writers Guild of America strikes, the 46-year-old actor said he was paid a wildly small amount for the film that grossed over $235 MILLION.

American Pie was one of the highest-grossing and most popular films of 1999. It was a cultural phenomenon! With its original budget of $11 million, it garnered a $243 million profit — there’s no reason one of the most beloved characters of the film should’ve had to take up work at the Los Angeles Zoo to make ends meet!
He continued on to say he worked at the LA Zoo “waiting for the movie to come out,” but also had another “odd job” before then. The Dude, Where’s My Car? alum argued it was “a lot of money at the time,” but compared to what the movie raked in, it definitely isn’t much…

In 2011, it was reported by The Hollywood Reporter he and his co-star Jason Biggs were paid around $5 million to return for American Reunion — which also garnered $235 million at the box office! While the budget for Reunion was much higher at $50 million, that’s still a huge profit for the production company.

American Pie star Seann William Scott has revealed the tiny fee he received for appearing in the huge blockbuster.The first American Pie film was released in 1999, with a sequel following in 2001 before two spin-offs: American Wedding and American Reunion.The first film in the series went on to make $235million (£182m) at the box office, yet Scott has revealed that he received only $8,000 (£6,200) for his starring appearance as Stifler.Speaking to chat show host Rick Elsen, Scott said that even that low fee “was a lot of money for me at the time.“I remember afterwards I bought a used Thunderbird for like $5000 or maybe $6000, I’m like, ‘Oh yeah, baby’,” he laughed.“I don’t know what happened to the other $2000 because I ended up having to work at the LA Zoo as a churro guy, so maybe it was even less than $8000.”Last year, it was revealed that a fifth film in the American Pie franchise is in the works at Universal, and will be penned by filmmaker Sujata Day.According to The Hollywood Reporter, work on a long-rumoured fifth film in the series is now in progress, and is being written by Day for Universal 1440 Entertainment.It adds that the story for the film is based on Day’s original script that was pitched, and promises a “fresh take” on the franchise.“Obsessed with raunchy comedies and American Pie is one of my all time faves!” Day wrote on Twitter to confirm the news. “So excited to be working on this movie.”Back in 2018, co-star Tara Reid hinted that a fifth American Pie movie could be on the way, saying: “I met the directors recently at the Emmy party and I said, ‘Let’s do the fifth movie, the franchise needs another movie’.
