Superstar Brad Pitt was paid a 9 million pounds salary for his zombie flick 'World War Z', while his body double, David Paterson, was paid 4.44 pounds an hour.
While Pitt stayed on a five-star private estate while filming the zombie movie, Paterson, earned 80 pounds for working an 18-hour day, reported Contactmusic.
"I basically had to be Brad for the day and copy everything he did on screen. Brad was there the entire time, and they were filming over the course of months, so it must have been quite tough.
"I was paid 80 pounds but it wasn't anything to do with the money. I'm not too fussed about that. I did it for the experience. You get asked to do something like that and you can't really say no," Paterson said.
