How much do you have to annoy everybody else to get paid to go home and not come back?
Since it's John Travolta, no one's saying. Mr. Battlefield Earth got the Dallas Boot as Page Six put it, and they think he got at least a cool million to ride into the sunset. Now. Please. Just get out...
"John was given a nice seven-figure 'gift' to go away quietly," our source added. "He also got five family members roles in the movie, and they aren't going to be in it now, either." A friend of Travolta confirmed, "He is not doing the movie. They've gone a different direction than was originally intended. I don't know about any 'gift,' and I don't think the family member thing is correct." A rep for Travolta declined to comment.They've downsized the star power of the cast, downsized the budget, hey, I've got an idea, why not make it a movie for TV? It's only been off the air since 1991, everyone should be able to pick right up where they left off.
