Stern was initially paid $300,000 for six weeks of work on the original film, he explained. After questioning his salary put his role in the sequel in jeopardy, Stern said he eventually received a call from the producers, who said they wanted him to return to the movie so they would “honor the original contract and make the schedule six weeks.”

According to the actor, he was offered $600,000 to appear in Home Alone 2.
“Double my original salary, but not quite the pot of gold I was hoping for,” he wrote in his book, noting that he asked whether that was “the same” amount Pesci was making.
“They said it was not,” Stern claimed.
The actor said he was eventually able to raise his Home Alone 2 salary to $800,000 after learning that Pesci was making “somewhere between $2,000,000 and $3,000,000 plus gross percentage of profits.”
“I knew they couldn’t do the movie without me, but I was also insecure, since I almost blew it the first time,” he wrote, revealing that eventually he got the studio to agree to a salary of $1.5 million and 1 percent of the gross profits. “I didn’t want to be too greedy when I loved the movie and the part so much.”
