Taking to Threads with a photo of her character, Tommy wrote, "My earnings for the entire first season of 13 reasons why were $29,953.24 prior to agency and manager fees (20%) and taxes. 8 episodes over six months."

After tax, this works out to around $23.6k. However, agents and managers are paid a percentage of gross income, so Tommy's take home pay would have been around $17,700, or around $2,950 per month of shooting. However, what's likely not included in this paid time period are things like auditions and press, and most actors do not book back-to-back jobs. It's unclear whether Tommy has included residuals in this number, but, if other comparable streaming titles are to go by, it's likely that Tommy earned very little from residuals.
