Elle Fanning — Banking On an Oscar and Big Box Office … for New ...

0828_elle_fanning_oscar_cash_compositeElle Fanning‘s not exactly hauling in Jennifer Lawrence money yet — she’s only 17 — but she’s got a shot at earning that kinda scratch from her next job … IF she turns in an award winning performance.

Luckily for Dakota Fanning‘s kid sis there’s already some Oscar buzz for “About Ray” — a movie she’s only getting $ 65,000 to make — base salary, anyway. That’s the bad news. 

The good news is Elle’s playing a teenage girl transitioning to a boy. In other words, it’s exactly the kinda flick Oscar voters tend to eat up … and that will put a ton of bonus money in her bank account.

According to her contract, Elle gets $ 100k if she’s nominated for and wins a Golden Globe — and another $ 167k for an Oscar nod and win!

There’s also a $ 250k bonus if ‘Ray’ earns $ 45 million worldwide at the box office — which would be really impressive for a small budget film. 

For your consideration … a teenager looking to make a buck.
