While the teen drama genre is crowded with shows fighting for viewers’ attention, “Outer Banks” has managed to stand out effortlessly. How could it not? While the story might not be the most profound, it’s certainly original and relatively unique.
Premiering in 2020, the series follows a group of teenagers searching for a legendary treasure on an island divided between the rich and the poor. It combines thrilling adventures, passionate romance, and treasure-hunting mysteries.
As the production gears up for its fourth season, set to release on October 10, many fans are curious about the salaries of the actors and actresses involved, given the show’s tremendous success on Netflix. Here, all that is known.
Breaking down the ‘Outer Banks’ rumored cast salaries
Before delving into the rumored salaries of the “Outer Banks” cast, it’s important to note that TV productions generally pay less than big-screen projects, and the stars of this series are still at an early stage in their careers, so their paychecks are expectedly more modest.
According to Showbiz Galore, the highest earner among the cast is Chase Stokes, who plays main character John B Routledge. He is reportedly making $55,000 per episode. This figure would be reasonable given that Stokes has only accumulated 10 acting credits so far.
Madelyn Cline follows closely behind, with rumors suggesting she earns $50,000 per episode. Her salary may increase in the future as she takes on roles in major productions like the “I Know What You Did Last Summer” reboot and “The Map That Leads to You” adaptation with KJ Apa.
Madison Bailey and Jonathan Davis reportedly earn $40,000 and $35,000 per episode, respectively. Like Cline, Bailey’s salary is expected to rise as she builds a solid list of upcoming projects outside of “Outer Banks”.
Rudy Pankow seems to earn $35,000 per episode, while Austin North is said to make $30,000 per episode, and Drew Starkey reportedly receives $17,000 per episode. Again, while these figures are rumored, they align with the typical pay rates for young, rising stars in the industry.
