Matt Damon got $3 million for Nespresso ad?
OHMYGOSSIP — Matt Damon earned a whopping $3 million for starring alongside George Clooney in a Nespresso ad — and it was only for 20 seconds!
Damon bagged an impressive $150,000 per second he appears in the ad, which was produced for the UK market and directed by Grant Heslov, a producer and co-writer on his upcoming film The Monuments Men.
“Matt is one of the few Hollywood stars to have turned down most ad and product-endorsement deals,” a source told New York Post gossip column Page Six.
“But this one came with a huge fee and the fact that he’d be working with people he trusts, his Monuments Men producer Grant Heslov and costar George Clooney.”
The source added that Clooney has a long-standing contract with Nespresso — he’s been the face of the Nestlé brand outside the United States since 2006, so his deal would have been handled differently.
