A few hours ago we published an article in which we showed you the first trailer of what will be one of the main attractions of Apple's new streaming video service, called Apple TV +. We are talking about the series The Morning Show starring Jennifer Aniston, Reese Witherspoon, and Steve Carrel.
According to the Financial Times, the budget that Apple has allocated this year for its streaming video service is around 6.000 million, a figure that may seem very high initially, if we do not take into account the cost of production of some of the most striking series as is the case of The Morning Show.
The series The Morning Show is one of the productions that is costing the company the most money. The salary per episode for both Jennifer Aniston and Reese Witherspoon is $ 1,25 million. The winner of the Golden Globe, Steve Carrel, whose fees have not been revealed, should not be far from that figure.
The Financial Times claims that the stars of Games of Thrones earned around $ 500.000 per episode and much of their budget was dedicated to special effects. Another of the series that has had the most cost in recent years has been The Big Bang Theory, since each and every one of the actors and actresses that were part of the cast they made a million dollars per episode for the last three seasons.
Since Apple began its plans to create its video platform, has gone through Hollywood with the checkbook in hand to hire the stars, both award-winning writers, directors and actors, most relevant in the film industry. Apple TV + could see the light next November in 150 countries, and will be priced at $ 9,99 per month, according to Bloomberg a few days ago.
