Actors' salaries can vary depending on a number of factors, including their experience, level of fame, and the type of work they do. For example, film actors generally earn more than theatre actors, and television actors earn more than actors who work in live shows.
Some actors are also able to supplement their income with royalties from their work. Royalties are payments that actors receive every time their work is performed or used in a public setting.
In addition to salaries and royalties, actors may also receive benefits such as health insurance, dental insurance, and a pension plan.
