Marvel Offering $250,000 to Mickey Rourke

It is said that Golden Globe winner Mickey Rourke is only being offered $250,000 for his role as the villian Crimson Dynamo in Iron Man 2. This is very little for an actor of an upcoming blockbuster movie. Marvel Studios probably offered Samuel L. Jackson a similar offer which is probably why Jackson said that he might not appear in the movie.

Iron Man has made $582 million in the box office worldwide. And in addition there are DVD sales, and licensed products like toys and clothes. How can Marvel Studios be struggling and needing layoffs? Where is all this money going?
