Though we don’t know Cooper’s exact salary for A Star Is Born, we do know that he played triple duty as director/actor/producer. As a result, his deal is bound to be massive.

Making A Star is Born bonded the pair for life. Cooper spoke to People about his friend and co-star, “I made a friend for life. As great as this movie was, the thing that I think I’ll take away forever is the relationship I have with her because she is an incredible person. I’m very lucky to have worked with her.”
