This strategy resulted in some fairly large paydays. For example, he earned a total of $1.4 million for his role in the 1954 movie Vera Cruz. That’s the same as $13 million today. He finished his career with 117 acting credits. Cooper won Academy Awards for Best Actor in a Leading Role for Sergeant York and High Noon.
