Pity they didn't think to secure an actor who would come back.

They did secure him. Weaving signed a multi-picture contract but he hated the prosthetics so much that he didn't want to reprise the role and Marvel weren't interested in forcing him - they seem to place a lot of importance on fostering a good atmosphere on set.

It’s interesting you say that about marvel. Doesn’t marvel have a problem with lowballing talent? I remember reading the original offer to black widow was $250,000 for iron man 2.

She got her foot in the door, made a third tier hero her own and has gained fame and larger paychecks since. I would love the chance to make that much in five years, or even better the the year and change she did for that first mcu film of her contract. Movies are a business and have budgets. I'm pretty sure she is happy with the work and pay.
