Bruce Willis allegedly was paid $3 million for shooting only two days for The Expendables, equivalent to about four minutes of screen time. He plays Mr. Church, who recruits Sylvester Stallone's character for a mission.

It's not a major role, but with guys like Willis and other big names, the movie is being marketed as a celebration of action movie legends. His high fee highlighted how good it looked on screen when big action stars made cameos.
