Yeah, sure Paranormal Activity was an indie film and it has had 3 major films now.

He's been in a lot of big movies, some small ones too and few popular video games.
I'm sure he got a lot for DRIV3R anyway, that was a big budget game. The likes of Iggy Pop and Mickey Rourke in it, and the trailer was directed by Ridley Scott.

I assumed you were lol. I am too don't worry. I'm sure he is very proud of his indie roots. No problem at all.

Interestingly he will probably get paid more for video games, I was able to find this quote about celebrity actors in video games:

"Now, if you were to talk celebrity voice talent, that figure increases exponentially. Speaking to Reuters, Blindlight production company general manager Lev Chapelsky said that some stars have demanded $750,000 for an hour’s worth of work, and one voice actor actually received $500,000 for a single session. Chapelsky told Reuters that top talent commonly receives “in the high five figures for a single session.”"

He's appeared in 6 video games in the last 10 years. I wouldn't assume he got paid the $500 000 peak the quote mentions. The average voice actor apparenlty earns "$50,506" so maybe let's say $100 000 - 200 000

Think I've provided too much information but there we are if you want it haha

I'm considering contacting Mr Madsen's agent to find out if he'd be willing to make a movie with me. I'm saving up...

He is making enough money off of royalty checks to keep from going broke I would imagine.

That says more about your film tastes than his career. No offence intended. We all like who we like.

He also has childsupport and considerable debts to pay according to other information.

Everyone knows who he is. They won't know him by name, but his face is very recognizable.

He is a C list actor.

Acting isn't the only string to Michael's bow. He's a highly respected and published poet. But never mind all that......he's just cool as *******.

He's been divorced twice in California, so he probably lost a lot of his money in the divorce settlements and has a lot of allimony payments.

He's a D-list "celeb" in the US. In the UK, D-list = A-list.

I wouldn't say D-list, more like B-List. OBviously not A-list, but he does have a very respectable film career. I think alot of these American celebs, think of going on BB like the way Brad Pitt does deoderant commercials in Japan, they figure no one in America will ever see it, so it's just easy money.
