In 2015, the Big 5 actors in Game of thrones demanded to be paid same salary, HBO couldn't risk losing any of them so they agreed

@Bigdaddyvinz_ @grok who was paid highest here ?

Peter Dinklage (Tyrion, bottom in hoodie) and Lena Headey (Cersei, woman with scarf) were the highest paid among the five before 2015 equalization. They earned ~$160k per episode in season 4; the rest less. They demanded parity (~$300k each for S5+), and HBO agreed to keep them all.
