Tayler Launter was last year’s highest paid teenage actor
The actor — who shot to fame in the Twilight movie franchise — is making eight figures a movie, according to a new report from Deadline.
The 18-year-old — who was last year’s highest paid teenage actor, after landing a $7.5 million pay to star in Stretch Armstrong — has scored an 8-digit paycheck from Fox 2000 for his two only available time slots this year.
Lautner recently revealed that the worse thing about being famous is the lack of privacy.
“There’s tons of good things and bad things,” he said of fame. “Obviously, the lack of privacy is bad. It’s not normal to go out and have dozens of cars with photographers waiting outside while you get your coffee. But like I said, there’s many good things too and I’m willing to put up with the inconveniences.
“I might not go shopping or to the movies, but I have my favorite places, like certain restaurants that are not very famous. There are times when I don’t care and I go bowling. It might get a little complicated at times, but I still have fun, even if I go back home thinking I shouldn’t have gone out and I don’t go out for awhile.”
