I don't have any statistics but I'd guess a lot of the money goes to the publishers and IP/Licence holders. Most game studios produce games on behalf of established publishers like EA with licenses from companies like Disney and I would assume they know to take a pretty piece of the cake. I also have a feeling that the culture in the games industry have been rotting for a while and talent being "abused" has become the norm. You can be a "rockstar" coder or coding "Wizard" all you want, but you'll probably never reach the paycheck of a good actor.
