Claire has a very lovely dreams and a great attitude. Go for it, Claire. Nevertheless, rarely do movie actors reach such a high level of income.
Still, how much a movie actor is paid depends a lot on if they are union or non-union. It depends on if the film is independent and/or the size of the budget. It can be a "low-budget independent film", "student film" or "epic motion picture".
If it is a student film or low-budget, and they hire actors, too: The pay can and will be either 1) none or 2) anywhere from transportation $5.00 (for a subway or bus ticket) to $500.00.
Some films also offer "deferred pay"; which means, if the independent film sells you will get paid WHEN and IF they get money. "Deferred pay" usually means you will not get paid, though.
If you have not qualified for SAG (Screen Actors Guild), and you CANNOT just join; you must earn it. If you have not earned it, yet and do not have the $2,500 to join -- you are considered NON-UNION.
As a non-union actor you are often not paid at all. And even if you do "extra" or "background" work on the big films with famous people . . . you, as a non-union actor are paid LESS than an union 'extra'.
If you're union (a member of SAG, in some cases AFTRA); you will be paid more. You're salary, though, depending again the type of film it is -- ranges from $50.00 to $50,000 for your first film(s). In fact, many movie actors (non-famous, members of SAG) make, per year, if they work in films -- anywhere from $1,000 (one thousand) to $50,000 a film. It varies greatly.
I know a movie actor, in many films and he's even a little famous. He doesn't make $300,000 or even near per film. That is very, very rare!
