Vin Diesel is one of the A-listers of Hollywood who, even though started his career in WWE, made quite a name for himself in the film industry.

But do you know how much he got paid for saying only three words? Keep scrolling to read!

Vin debuted in the Marvel world with 2014’s Guardians of the Galaxy, where he played an adult version of Groot, who later sacrificed himself to save the other superheroes. However, a small branch from the adult Groot gave birth to a baby Groot who won the hearts of millions of fans.

The mischievous baby Groot was seen in Guardians of the Galaxy Vol 2, and then his younger version debuted in Avengers: Infinity War, following a mature Groot in Avengers: Endgame. Vin Diesel played with the dynamo of his voice to fit Groot’s age range. Even though Groot can only say the three words that are “I Am Groot”, his mannerisms and behavioural pattern have changed over time, and Vin’s voice modulation has helped to create the distinction between all of Groot’s ages.
