Depends on what they negotiated on the front end and how big of a star they were before this. I believe Jason Momoa might get a cut of the profits because he has a long history in Hollywood but people like Daisy Ridley who only got $300,000 in Star Wars: Force Awakens even though it was guaranteed to make a billion (it actually made $2 billion) - no they don't get a cut of the profits.
He btw go paid $14 million for Aquaman.
