‘Star Wars’ actor Ewan McGregor to give ex-wife half of movie, TV royalties in divorce
NY Post Page Six ^ | August 16, 2020 | 4:36pm | Lee Brown

Ewan McGregor has to give his ex-wife half of the multi-million fortune he earned during his acting career — including his blockbuster “Star Wars” movies, according to reports of their contentious divorce.

The “Trainspotting” star agreed to split with Eve Mavrakis any of his royalties from all of the movies and TV shows before their breakup in May 2017 — when the star was seen kissing “Fargo” co-star Mary Elizabeth Winstead — according to a judgment seen by People magazine.

It also includes half the $3,000,000 he earned for “Christopher Robin” which came out in 2018, a year after the high-profile split, the mag said.

As well as splitting all residuals and royalties from his career — which along with four “Star Wars” flicks includes notable hits like “Moulin Rouge” — McGregor agreed to a hefty monthly payout to his ex-wife of 22 years.

He’ll pay Mavrakis $35,868 per month in spousal support — as well as $14,934 per month in child support, according to the mag, a previous sticking point in the breakup.

Take your wallet out before you drop trousers, married men!

Or, keep your pants on.

I’d have divorced him for a lot less than that! All I want is an apartment near the library.

The new wife is hot. Old wife is unnattractive. He could have done better based upon his looks.

Marriages with one spouse way better looking never last. The good looking ones always upgrade later on.

As a rule, probably yes.

My personal experience, no. (Wife was way better looking than I, IMHO). But after 40 years, who can tell?
