How Much I Got Paid To Act In Stranger Things 

I misspoke about L.O.U being Bella Ramsay’s first series regular. I recorded this video with a script and went a little off-script in that moment. I should’ve fact-checked myself before speaking on it in the video. Her having been a Series Regular in the Worst Witch is likely why she was paid above the $35k-$50k starting range.

I’m gonna be so honest. I HATED you in stranger things because you were so mean, but you seem like a genuinely nice person irl😭

Wow. American actors get paid so much more than Australians. As a Guest role we make $600. Good for you, that's awesome🎉

actors salaries are so interesting.... awesome job shedding light on the topic. Loved the videos as always!!!

It can be hard to separate the actor from the character but omg you don't sound like your character at all. You seem so nice and quiet. Congrats to you!! 🎉

u did such a good job on stranger things

I really appreciate the no clickbait, informative video. When I was growing up, information like this was pandora's box only - you had to already be working to learn this stuff. Because I spent much of my youth working in entertainment, I already knew what you got paid on the network show was going to be higher than streaming lol. It's not as cool to be on a CBS show as a hit streaming show, but it definitely pays better.

thank you king for not gatekeeping

Jesus Christ actors act so well that their real self is so much different from acting. Nice job on Stranger Things

This is quite funny to me as I started watching stranger things worth my family. My dad kept saying 002 (you) has really good acting skills. Hope you have a great career dude!

The best breakdown of an actors pay I ever heard was from Bruce Campbell. In his book "If Chins Could Kill: Diaries of a B movie actor", he breaks down his pay for Army of Darkness which is the third movie in the Evil Dead franchise. He was paid $500,000 for the role. However, if you remove Tax, Agent fees, Manager fees, Union dues and payment to ex-wife (he got divorced while making the movie) that left him with $93,000. That seems like a lot until you realize he was involved with the project for 2 years and did not book anything else during that time. That means he made $46,500 a year for two years.

Tristan, I find you overall vibe very calming, thanks for being transparent about things people typically shy away from. Much Respect.

I appreciate how concise and well-explained this video was, it might be the best coverage I've ever seen on the topic. Good luck on your journey Tristan

My youtube recommendations have been so good lately. Thanks for sharing! I’ve always been curious about this so it’s nice to hear it from an actor.

Bro you were so amazing in Stranger things which is one of my fav shows to watch. Keep going man you're doing amazing things!!

This is the video we all needed! Thanks Tristan. this is gold!

Omgggg you did a really good job! I love stranger things and you played it so perfectly. Thank you for the video 🫶🏻

okay but you’re such a good actor bc you genuinely freaked me out so much when i watched season 4 💀 i’m getting nervous just by looking at you again 😭

You were amazing on the show! It sucks that all of the kids ended up how they did, would have absolutely love to see at least some of you would have come back in the last season

Always cool to see these kind of behind-the-scenes videos! Also you did an amazing job on Stranger Things!!!
