That would be boring, but would also make a lot of sense, seeing as how I'd imagine Pitt would command such a salary that having two leads might not be feasible for HBO.

Does HBO base the salaries of their actors on subscriptions and DvD sales only or is there other sources of income? Could Pitt, and someone else, be given a cut of some sort of back end to lower their salary and thus make it financially feasible?

Pretty sure big names don't go to HBO for big money...That's what shitty rom-coms and buddy comedies are for.

It will be Brad Pitt and that chick from a league of their own with the big face.

Geena Davis that's her

How the fuck has Jimmy Mcnulty (Dominic West) not had a noticeable career since The Wire?

Well, now that I think about it... I guess you could ask that question for about 80% of the shows cast.

Because he was a dumb fuck and turned down the role of Mance Rayder over a misunderstanding.

I'm pretty sure they had to make some massive rewrites to the character when he turned it down and they got Ciaran Hinds instead.
