He Got It!

But is he worth it???

As we mentioned earlier this week, Lost “stars” Matthew Fox and Evangeline Lilly‘s reps were in talks with the show’s producers to up their salaries.

The two of them are reportedly getting about $150,000 per episode.

Now, Matthew has just signed a new deal to continue on the show, but with a salary raise.

Fox is expected to earn about $225,000 per episode.

That’s a $75,000 increase!

That’s as much as the ladies from Desperate Housewives are said to be making.

The rest of the Lost cast is still trying to renegotiate their deals.

The last cast-wide raise was given back in early 2006 when most of the actors were brought up to $80,000 an episode. Fox however, was said to have gotten a $250,000 bonus.

It pays to be the lead star.
