How Linda Cardellini makes her money
Television is her biggest source. She had a major role on ER for several seasons, and starred in Bloodline and Dead to Me, which are long-running series that pay a salary for each episode.
Film has been steady. The Scooby-Doo films made her a recognizable name, and she has appeared in widely seen releases such as Green Book, A Simple Favor and the Daddy's Home films, mostly in supporting roles.
She also works in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, where she played Laura Barton and voiced Lylla, which adds both live-action and voice fees.
