‘The Rip’ Stars Matt Damon & Ben Affleck Changed Netflix’s Pay Structure for New Action Thriller

In a recent interview with The New York Times, Ben Affleck shared that the film’s cast and crew will receive bonuses based on how well the movie performs on Netflix. This is a change for Netflix, which usually pays creators a fixed amount upfront. For The Rip, all 1,200 people who worked on the film could earn a bonus if it reaches certain viewership goals within its first 90 days on the streaming service. Essentially, the more people watch the movie, the bigger the bonus for everyone involved.
