However, it appears that Dwayne Johnson will out-earn Smith with his forthcoming DCEU film, Black Adam.

Although Johnson’s earnings as an actor in Black Adam have not been disclosed. It is well known that Dwayne Johnson’s Seven Bucks Production is producing Black Adam, which implies he is also the film’s producer.
Consequently, aside from his salary, he will also take home a share of the film’s profit at the box office. This implies that his earnings for Black Adam would be absurdly high in comparison to Will Smith’s $20 million earnings as Deadshot in Suicide Squad.
In addition, Dwayne Johnson made $23.5 million for his most recent film, Red Notice. It’s highly possible that his salary for Black Adam will be similar or perhaps greater. Hence, in comparison to what Dwayne Johnson would make in Black Adam, Smith earned less in Suicide Squad.
Will Smith’s performance in the Suicide Squad was widely acclaimed. He was also expected to be a part of Suicide Squad 2. However, scheduling issues forced him to exit the series. If Smith had remained with DCEU, then we could have witnessed The Great One and Smith squabble about who gets paid the most from DCEU.
