Producers, what would you pay Ethan Hawke for 1 or 2 days of shooting? How do you go about determining what to offer an "A" list actor on a pay or play commitment? What are the measuring sticks that determine your offer?
The answer to this question can run from SAGAFTRA scale if he likes the project and is excited to get on board - A million dollars if you are advertising a new Rolex? It depends on your budget and if he is interested in the project because he thinks it is awesome and wants to be involved or he just wants a pay check.
lol! The measuring sticks are largely in the actors inclinations. It appears to be a crap shoot. Line up ten preffered "A" listers and offer on down the list until one bites. On my side I'm inclined to offer 100,000 for two days. Would all ten agents scoff?

In other words how long is a piece of string :-)
