Abigail Breslin's Zombie Paycheck

Posted Jul 16th 2009 1:15AM by TMZ Staff

Abigail Breslin got top billing for "Zombieland" on the movie's IMDB page -- but that doesn't mean she's pulling in top dollar.

The 13-year-old's contract -- which is on file with the L.A. County Superior Court -- shows she was paid $100,000 for the flick ... not exactly Cameron Diaz money.

But don't cry for her too much ... Abigail will get bonuses starting at $50,000, depending on how much the movie pulls in.

Here's the deal -- even if the movie bombs, $100,000 is way more than you made at 13 ... and us too.

5. what kind of screwed up world are we living in where 100,000 dollars is bad? Hell I would cut off my own arm if I could get that much money, It would take me yrs to equal that amount.

6. what screwed up world are we living in where 100 grand is bad?? It would take me yrs to make that much, I would cut off my own arm to get that much but not really but you know what I mean. for one movie? a 13 yr old? I know you get a lot of money in that business but wow. and why would people look up her personal financial stuff, that seems sort of invasion of privacy to me.

7. I wanna have sex with Abigail Breslin

8. This is how it should be - thats a much more sensible salary even though its more than most of us earn and.. the insentive to earn more if it does well is good for the film as they actors may try harder and be less diva like. About time people started realising stars aren't worth the 20 million they get! Theres a whole crew back there!
