So according to IMDB, from 2020 on Mara Wilson has done one movie, one short, and 7 TV episodes. I’m hard pressed to say that should qualify for three years of a living wage, much less anything considered lavish.
That’s not the point. Does Jerry Seinfeld deserve $40-60 million for the last 3 years since he made one TV Special in 2020? No. But does he deserve a cut of the profits for the wildly successful content he made earlier in his career that is in syndication? Yes. Streaming platforms are trying to get out of equitably sharing the profits on content they host. That’s my (layman’s) understanding of the issue here.
