Talks between Warners and the actors reps has been on and off since January. The offers on the table for Parsons, Cuoco and Galecki has topped the $1 million per episode mark, plus a larger sliver of the shows backend, for a three-season commitment. Big Bang, from the prolific Chuck Lorre Prods., is projected to gross more than $1 billion in syndication sales for the studio, thanks to mammoth first-cycle deals with TV stations and cabler TBS and strong advertising sales.
But the negotiations have been complicated by the fact that Parsons team is said to be angling for a bigger payday than Cuoco and Galecki, while those two are insisting on parity with Parsons. Helberg and Nayyar are said to be unsatisfied with offers that are lower than those for the other three.
Parsons is a three-time Emmy winner for his Big Bang role, and hes a two-time nominee this year for Big Bang and for his work in the HBO telepic The Normal Heart.
