HOW MUCH DOES A BODY DOUBLE EARN?

How much did Brad Pitts Double earn on World War Z?

David Paterson was chosen to stand in for Brad because he shares similar vital statistics to the Hollywood Heart throb.  David Paterson, a 26-year-old solicitor, from Lasswade, Midlothian, worked an 18 hour shift for a pitiful £80 for an 18-hour shift.  The film has made $430 million. Brad Pitt earns a reported £16 million a year.  David Paterson earned £80 for his 18 hour shift, that’s £4.44 an hour.   David had to shadow Pitt's scenes on the set while filming in a supermarket in Glasgow.  According to the Daily Mirror, David was told not to speak to Pitt on set. “I basically had to be Brad for the day and copy everything he did on screen,” he said.
“Brad was there the entire time, and they were filming over the course of months, so it must have been quite tough.”

Talking about the nuts and bolts of the job, Paterson went on: “Brad and I ran through the supermarket putting tins and jars into the trolley, acting out different scenes, and I was following his actions.  “I wore identical clothes to him, jeans, blue jacket and T-shirt. I had the same physique as him, both slim built, though not any more as I’ve put on weight since then. “Brad’s a very professional guy and I had a job to do and I just did it to the best of my ability.”
 “I was paid £80 but it wasn’t anything to do with the money. I’m not too fussed about that. “I did it for the experience. You get asked to do something like that and you can’t really say no.”

Brad Pitt.. the man with the money!
