Part of their contract. Isn't this how everything is supposed to work? To get royalties just because you demand it seems unreasonable but if the actor/actor's agent negotiates it in part of their contract then that is fine. However there can be problems with this. Game development costs are high and games are risky meaning an actor could get paid one sum for their work (less risk) or get paid less for their time and get royalties based on game sales (higher risk). This is how a lot of deals in hollywood work, I think Tom Cruise does this a lot. Yet he can demand to do it as he is Tom Cruise.
So, I'd say, it's up to that person to get that in their contract. I think a good question should be why didn't they?
All good points btw.
Hmm, pie.
