Being Lyonne can have its rewards over and above her $Three million price.
7. Lori Petty - $5 Million
IMDb calls her "feisty, kinetic, highly offbeat". In the 90s she connected with Keanu Reeves in Point Break. And Lori Petty concept she had hit it big when she was forged as Geena Davis' sister in mega-hit A League of Their Own, in 1992. But her kooky, tomboy persona saved entering into the approach. And when the roles dried up she took to directing and forged novice Jennifer Lawrence in The Poker House, her first position. She rightly predicted JLaw would be a celeb, pronouncing she had no worry of the digicam. On Orange is the New Black, she plays Lolly, a personality who has a much more than a place of paranoia and perhaps a marginally of schizophrenia. She hears issues. Lolly is now and again lucid and really nice. But you never know when she's going to be nutso and when she shall be sane. That's part of the a laugh. And Petty is guffawing all the method to the bank.
(*15*)6. Kate Mulgrew - $5 Million
After many years in motion pictures and TV, Kate Mulgrew is a wealthy person. She used to be Captain Kathryn Janeway on Star Trek: Voyager, and now she is the nasty, nasty Red Reznikov on OITNB.

According to intouchweekly.com, Kate is the maximum "disliked" cast member as a result of she calls for retakes, argues with the writers, and criticizes her co-stars' performing. She turns out to suppose she is the celebrity of the show and everybody else is simply scenery. Look, it is not OITNB, it is "The Kate Mugrew Show". Not a recipe for Miss Congeniality, we might say.
5. Andrew McCarthy - $7 Million
His hundreds of thousands were earned over a career of just about thirty years in film, TV and theater. His boy subsequent door looks landed him honest and nice leading man roles in the Eighties. Andrew McCarthy had big roles in St. Elmo's Fire, Pretty in Pink and Less Than Zero. And if his appearing gigs and directing episodes of Orange is the New Black aren't sufficient, he is giant into shuttle writing and an Editor at Large at National Geographic Traveler magazine. Recently in Ethiopia, the travel writer had an unpleasant come upon with a guard at a church he sought after to consult with and located himself with an actual, loaded gun in his again. Apparently, it was once a short lived misunderstanding and ended fairly neatly. That was no longer true when he was fired from Law & Order: Criminal Intent because of bust-ups with fellow actor, Vincent D'Onofrio.
(*15*)4. Laura Prepon - $12 Million
Apparently she used to be all over her main man, 2016's runaway blockbuster hit Warcraft actor Ben Foster, over the 4th of July weekend. But on the display, Laura Prepon is the former lover of Piper Chapman, an international drug dealer, and (Piper thinks) the reason she landed in Litchfield.

Starring as Donna Pinciotti on That 70's Show and as Cathy in 2016's Girl on the Train, helped Prepon amass her tens of millions. At Five feet 10 inches, a lot of her scenes with 5'3" Milas Kunis, were filmed sitting down so the differences in their heights would not be so obvious.
3. Mary Steenburgen - $12 Million
She joined Orange is the New Black in its third season. Okay, stay with us, as this gets complicated. Daya Diaz was meeting prison officer Bennett for sex in a closet. But she gets pregnant and doesn't want to land him in it, so she seduces nasty guard Mendez, and tries to fit him up for r*pe. Enter Delia Mendez played by Mary Steenburgen. She wants to adopt the baby she thinks is her son's child. We'll leave it there. Everyone was excited when Steenburgen joined the cast. She and her hubby Ted Danson, are a well-liked and a super talented pair. And their years in movies and TV have seen the couple amass a joint net worth of some $72 million. So Steenburgen, who is a real-life nice lady is playing the very nice mom of nasty Mendez.
2. Jason Biggs - $13 Million
Jason Biggs plays Larry Bloom, the totally nice and incredibly yuppie fiance of Piper Chapman. Jason Biggs got started on his millions early in life, appearing in national commercials at the tender age of five. He's been pretty busy ever since.

We're betting that sales spiked big time in the wake of that effort.
1. Jenji Kohen - $15 Million
Jenji Kohen is a funny, in your face kind of lady. And colorful too. When OITNB creator and producer first met Piper Kerman to discuss making a show out of her 2010 memoir, she asked so many questions about her experience in prison that Kerman was flattered and the deal was soon to be sealed. She's also the talented creative force behind TV show Weeds. The 40-something has said that fame is not her thing, that she just wanted to sit in a room and type. But it's obvious that the flamboyant Kohen is a natural celebrity. She has also said that in her head, she's a rapper. But she is so totally not. OITNB has been called a "dramedy" because of its mix of comedy and drama. Life, Kohen says, is totally like that. You use humor to cope with real life drama. Having $15 million also probably helps in her case.
