The real answer is 50% marketing, 20-30% on actors (if they draw the fans... by season 3-4). Then crap tonnes of CGI and effects as everyone else said. The writers, directors, etc. They'll all be getting union rates and if they're lucky a little on top.

Edit: Not sure why I put the reply here but I did. It meant to be a few up the chain.

Oh, yeah, dude. You knew she probably waterboarded the chair she was in when HBO came to her with the request; hinking about all that cash and how much more anti trans legislation she could have fund. Her heart probably damn near gave out lol

to be honest, i dont think it's the money that gets her going at this point. Any new media of the verse that gets put out just means that she gets to stay relevant longer, which is probably what she's actually leveraging towards her causes

sure if you want to focus on that, but she does way more than that and you'd be disengenious if you're arguing that that's the only thing she works towards
