10 Rare Movie Actor Contract Clauses You Never Knew
6. Samuel L. Jackson Gets To Play Golf Twice Per Week While Shooting Movies
Samuel L. Jackson is one of the hardest-working actors in Hollywood, and going by his work schedule perhaps one of the smartest.
Jackson, a massive golf fan, has it written into all of his movie contracts that he's allowed to play golf twice per week throughout the duration of the shoot.
Tough though it is to imagine the Nick Fury actor being shuttled away from a Marvel Cinematic Universe set to play a few holes, that's apparently exactly what happens. In Jackson's own words:
"Generally, they either move me onto a golf course so I can play or join a club so I can play, and they have to let me play at least twice a week."
As for why the hard-talking acting legend enjoys a sport as tranquil as golf so much?:
"I like golf because it's a perfect game for an only child like me... In this game, you get responsibility for everything you do bad, and you get all the credit for everything you do well."
