Starz and other cable channels have more money because of subscriptions and so can afford to pay their casts more.
However, streaming platforms are king when it comes to money with global subscriptions which mean they have the most amount of cash at their disposal.
According to The Hollywood Reporter from 2014, actors on cable shows can make an estimated £144,000 to £762,000 ($150,000 to $1,000,000) for every episode of a show they appear in.
Although this is a very large ballpark, Johnson would likely have started at the lower end of this and worked his way up.
Johnson has been given an estimated net worth of £2.1 million ($3 million) by site Article Bio. With Power being his biggest role to date, he could have been earning a couple of hundred thousand for each episode of the show.
Power Book II: Ghost is streaming on Starz and Starzplay via Amazon Prime Video
