How much were Amy Adams and the ‘Nightbitch’ cast paid? All that is known

Looking at the rumored salaries for the “Nightbitch,” it follows a standard industry pattern: the lead star, typically an A-lister, earns a substantial seven-figure sum, while supporting actors receive lower payments. But not due to an unfair rule; rather, it’s because they have less prominence in the story.

According to Showbiz Galore, Amy Adams was paid $4 million for playing the protagonist in the movie. This comes as no surprise, considering her reported net worth of $60 million, with annual earnings from acting alone reaching $10-20 million, as per Celebrity Net Worth. Additionally, as one of the producers of “Nightbitch,” it’s natural for her compensation to reflect that added role.

Next on the list is Scoot McNairy, who plays Adams’ husband. He reportedly earned $300,000 for his participation, the same amount he allegedly received for his part in the James McAvoy-led remake of “Speak No Evil.” While this figure may seem modest compared to Adams’ payday, McNairy is a consistently working actor with multiple credits, ensuring a steady income.
