Steven Spielberg Does Not Prefer to Work With A-Listers

Steven Spielberg has worked with several movie stars and has made over a hundred movies throughout his career. Although he has worked with multiple actors over the years, he has also claimed that he doesn’t actually prefer to work with big Hollywood stars.

During an interview with the NZ Herald, the Oscar-winning director shared that he has not worked with many Hollywood stars. “80 percent of my films don’t have movie stars,” he shared before saying that he often gambles on his movies and wishes his cast to do the same. “I’ve told them if they want to work with me, I want them to gamble along with me,” he said.

And it could either have a positive or negative impact on an actor’s career, as it could establish an actor as the face of the franchise or could do the exact opposite. The filmmaker also shared that he always puts one condition before casting A-list actors in his movies.

Steven Spielberg’s One Condition For Actors in His Movies

Although Steven Spielberg has shared that he does not usually work with A-List stars, there are some exceptions for the filmmaker. He has worked with stars like Harrison Ford, Leonardo DiCaprio, and Tom Hanks in several movies.

Ford has gained worldwide recognition as the adventurer archeologist Indiana Jones. DiCaprio and Hank’s roles in Catch Me If You Can are also some of the best performances of their career. However, the director doesn’t just cast such big stars in his movies.

He has claimed that he has not taken a salary for any of his movies and places the same condition for actors joining the cast of his films. “I haven’t taken a salary in 18 years for a movie, so if my film makes no money I get no money. They should be prepared to do the same,” he said in his interview.

Tom Hanks, who worked with him in Saving Private Ryan, also did not receive any advance payment for the movie. Not just that, one of the conditions also included that he might not get any money if the movie failed. While Hanks did not receive any upfront payment, “he made a lot of money on his profit participation,” Speilberg said during his interview.
