Actress Sandra Bullock has really been on a tear. Beginning with the box office smash The Proposal, then winning an Oscar for The Blind Side, the popular actress has gotten some icing on the cake as the deal she struck with Warner Bros. for the global hit Gravity will leave her with a payday of at least $70 million. The deal had her making $20 million upfront and then 15 percent of first-dollar gross after that. Gravity has earned over $700 million worldwide (before DVD sales and TV), meaning that after theater owners and the studios get their cut, Bullock will be swimming in money.
