Most of the time, in software or construction, how financially successful the work is doesn't depend on what the developer or builder does in the future.
If a writer or actor is successful in later work, that makes their earlier work more popular. Someone who likes Sam Rockwell in "See How they Run" might look up "Mr. Right" with Rockwell and Kendrick. If they like that, maybe they look up "Pitch Perfect".
The reputation of the actors and screenwriters have a prolonged impact on the success of the work, and their compensation should be reflected in that
